Default bfg all terrain k/o's suck in the rain

I guess my title says it all. today first rain in a while and these tires offer little to zero traction.

Hey don't feel so bad, these pro comps ain't much better.
Wife and I went to the mall last weekend and it was raining. I went to turn into an entrance to a parking lot and the rear wheels broke loose and I didn't know it till too late. We were almost facing the opposite direction before it was over.
And I swear I wasn't on the peddal at all. Surprised the hell out of me!!

too much torque for them to hold... when it rains the back end breaks loose on any incline. I put my xtreme's to the test a few rains back by stomping on the brakes from 45 mph... stopped as good as a 7000 lb truck could. I was impressed with them.

I had the BFG's on my 2000 and found myself in intersections a couple of times in the wet... never again...
