Gene,
Unfortunately, a few of us have had several opportunities to use the
rains for AX this year. I use 12lb rear and 11lb front.
Regardless of the pressures you use, just make sure to stay in the wet
line. They have surprising grip when wet...but they get very unhappy
if asked to work in the dry. Good luck!
