You want to talk about tires?
Those models you meaning are not semi slick tires.
Car Tires are categorized into HP, UHP, Max, Extreme.
Of course got 4X4 and SUV is another story.
Slick, Semi Slicks are mostly specialised tires used for the track and unsuitable for road use. Those road legal tires that are extreme will also not market itself as Semi Slick.
If you really wanna try afforfable tires that are so call 'semi slick' Road legal tires, try Hankook RS-3 / RS-4.
What will happen is you will find out the tires stick to the road like Glue. Like using a Cloth Dust Remover Roller.
Your Fuel Consumption will be worst as the rolling resistance is high. Unless you have high power car to drive these, it will now be a burden.
Regarding wet handling, of course you need to driver slower, still can driveable in the went, but in heavy rain, probably less than 60kmh. The thing about extreme tires is the rubber compound, as it sticks like glue, so it does play apart in the rain. But if puddles, than you will out of control. If you insist to driver normally in the rain, than you will easily crash. No matter your car have all those electronics aid. I normally encounter puddles usually after rain that will catch you out.
To keep story short
You basically will sacrifice car power, comfort, fuel economy and wet grip just for some trills of cornering.
Some safer Extreme tires I can recommend that does perform average in the wets and drivable are the Advan AD08R.
But talking about cornering trill on the public road, becareful that towtruck driver also loves those places.
And your car suspension and Engine also needs some upgrading.
