HMM...Surprisingly little chatter on this thread.

I know lots (dare I say most) of you have the 20"s. I hope this wasn't considered a stupid question. I have never owned a car with performance tires. I just want to make sure I won't be hydroplaning at moderate speeds (less than 65 mph) in heavy rain (i.e. significantly more so than I would be on a mid-size non luxury sedan). I will have a pregnant wife in the car with me and just want to make sure there will be no unexpected surprises.

I do know that in general low profile tires are more susceptible to planing...but don't what this means practically for a new E70 with 20s and OEM tires.

Thanks again...
