I pulled the following from Kumho's web site:

  "Most cars should begin by using cold inflation 
  pressures for wet track conditions that are 5 to 8 
  psi below the cold inflation pressures they use in 
  their tires for a dry track."

I always thought the opposite was true - that you 
*raised* pressures by 5 or so psi for wet conditions.  
Which is correct?
