Then get some Federals, for like 50bucks each!!!

OR YOU CAN ALWAYS swap the tires (INSIDE OUT)

Thats what I did...

Just go slow in the rain.

From experience, it's generally a bad idea for ride and handling to mix-match tires on a car. It might be worth just replacing all four, or replacing the front two with like kind.

I put a set of these on a car when they first came out and the first thing I noticed is how much the tread tapers off at the shoulder of the tire. If you have camber issues than you are definitely going to eat these up quick.
