It may not have been the tires that caused the OP's crash but I can tell you without hesitation that the PS 4's are a much better tire all the way around but *especially* in the rain than the SS's.
I got my car w/ 3500 miles on the clock - inherited the SS's - drove it in the rain a few times and I was like - WTF is wrong w/ this car.
Started to research a better alternative - spoke w/ Rudy at the TireRack - recommended the PS4's which I switched out at 6500 miles.
1st time I drove in a rainstorm - there was a huge difference - no more hydroplaning.
Now have 12K miles on the car - drove in the rain recently and zero problems - all the above in Sport mode.
I'm just trying to help here but, the SS's in the rain are dangerous imo.
