Most (if not all) All-Terrain tires are slippery on wet
pavement...especially Mud-Terrain tires. Just stay off the pedal and you'll
be fine. Petersons 4WD ran a test several months ago (including BFG,
Goodyear, Bridgestone, and a few others) and they determined that BFG came
out in front. (Goodyear and Bridgestone were not that far behind.)

I'm running Goodyear Wrangler AT/S on a 93 Dakota. I haven't have had any
trouble in any kind of weather I drove in. The only thing is that I think
the tires are wearing out a little to fast, but i'm not worried and there's
alot of life left in them. Those tires aren't designed for 85mph speeds on
the highway. They make to much noise I think. If you have any other
questions about Goodyear tires i'm happy to answer them for you since i work
at a Goodyear tire center.
