same thing happened to me in the rain only 20 miles after i had put on my nittos and wheels on my base. lost the rear then gained control, then just did a 180 all of a sudden.

Sorry to read about the accident.

Update? Did the car get repaired?

Seems to me that if you are driving so aggressively in the rain where the tires make a difference, if you spin out it's not the tires fault.

It's the drivers fault. A definition of intelligence is the ability to learn from your experience.
