Well the water reduces the friction, which means less wear. So nope it doesnt wear your tires as much i think.

you should get hit really hard in the stomach if you're 'drifting' in the rain.

sure you can...

you can feint drift, brake drift, and weight drift perfectly fine.

The only stuff you cannot do is a power on, power off, or drivetrain drift.

that's more like power sliding instead of drifting i think
looks strange seeing a FWD car drift. you got to be really good at it to make it look decent
