i got new brakes put on lats month (semi-metalic)

anyway i was driving to work and it was raining , roads were wet and my car was shifting weird after comng to a complete stop. once i went it would shift into first gear hard

i took it to a mechanic but he couldnt find a problem

then it was fine, no problem but today it was raining an dmy car did the same thing. anytime i went when a light turned green or his the gas after being at a stop sign. the car would stutter as it shifted into first gear. like it would go , then act like it was stuck and then shift

it has only happened twice and its both been raining

also my tires are really really bad

could it be the tires arent gripping the road and thats why my cars shifting funny, like the tires arent caught up?

Sounds to me like your tires are sputtering when you first engage the gas. Get new tires. Not worth driving on crappy tires anyway.

If not it could be something electronic in the transmission controls or sensors. Maybe wet weather changes a sensor reading causing the problem.
