You can definitely go higher than that if it's really wet. At 24 psi I bet it took 3 or 4 laps before you could have much confidence turning in or getting on the throttle from the apex. I was using 27 psi yesterday, and the quickest driver there said he was using "quite a bit more". (Funny how the people doing the best times don't give too much away... :-) )

Got to agree about the feel. With the old wets it was really easy to reach the "point of no return" and spin before you've realised you've overcooked it. With the new ones there's a lot more feedback, so it's easier to experiment with late braking and getting on the throttle earlier.
