Front tyres appear to be borked due to the texture mapping; there is a fix but you'll need to use a Custom Shaders Patch extension to apply it; @Hoksu has done such CSP extensions before with his Pessio RD1 F1 Liveries where the CSP extension is used to get the tread pattern of inters & wets to display properly.

New v1.1 version should address these issues.

Hey, mate! Decided to give the new wet physics a go, but I don't think it's working properly—the dry tyres seem to have the same grip in dry and wet weather, and the inters and wets overheat halfway through the outlap.

This is what pressures and temps looked like for a set of wets after two laps of Monza, in "Heavy Thunderstorm" weather:

Meanwhile, a set of mediums remained cool and grippy (?) after 6 laps in the same "Heavy Thunderstorm" weather (?!).

Any idea of what might be going on here?

Hi, that looks like extended physics hasn't been enabled in content manager.

Make sure that one is ticked!

That was it, of course! The tyres are now working as expected, thank you.

Another thing I just noticed, however. When I start a session, the tyre pressures are much higher than they should be, but if I pit for a new set the pressures are fine, and remain fine throughout the stint. Apparently, the cold pressure settings in the main menu only go down to 16 psi, while the pit menu allows me to choose 13 psi, which works much better with these tyres. Do you see the same thing on your end? Or am I missing something?

Edit: Easy fix, apparently. Just had to edit minimum pressure values in the car's setup.ini. Just did a full weekend with the new tyres and everything worked great. Well, a couple of AI drivers chose to do the entire practice session on inters with completely dry weather, but other than that, great.
