"All seasons are great in summers cause they handle rain/water on roads even better than many summer tires (which are basically designed for dry/bare roads)"

Many tire tests have shown "summer" tires with the right carcass/tread design perform better then the best "all season" tires on wet/standing water roads.

Allseason tires have soft carcasses (designed for low temps/irregular snow & ice surfaces), that deform when standing water collects ahead of the contact patch and hydroplaning begins. Stiff carcass summer/high speed tires maintain a flatter contact patch.

For warm/wet driving, summer tires are the best choice.

For cold/wet driving, all-season tires are better.
