Is hydroplaning / wet stopping distance going to fall off a lot? I.e. do people switch summers out at that point or is running summers down to 2/32 fine?
Just wondering if I can run them for the summer or if I should replace them now.
Thinking of Pilot Sport AS 4 or Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus as replacements, I don't think I want pure summer tires as this is my daily driver, I think the first owner this was a summer fun car.

I'll advocate for the DWS06+. I have them on my X3 M40i and they're awesome! I use them all year round in YYC and they have been excellent.
