Suppose you are buying tires for your Contour and you were concerned about hydroplaning. Given the same tire in two different widths, assuming the same weight of the car, identical tire pressures, identical tread patters (except for the width of course) which would resist hydroplaning better, the wider or narrower tire, and why.

This sounds like a problem for EdwardC
