Why is tire tread important?
Increases grip if there is water on the roadway the water can enter the holes in the tread and not interfere as much with the rubber contact with the road.

How does a car hydroplane?
Hydroplaning occurs when the tires' tread is unable to expel enough water to maintain a rubber contact patch on the road. The function of tread is to allow the "high" part of the tread pattern to cut through by forcing water (and other road grit) into channels and grooves surrounding the tread blocks. When the water gets too deep for the tread grooves to cut through it and force it between the tread blocks, the "high part" of the tread blocks lose contact with the pavement and looses traction by hydroplaning.

How does the tread make wet-weather driving safe?
The tread of tires is designed to channel the water between the ridges, so that the upper tread stays in contact with the road. The tread gives water someplace to go as the tire rolls. It channels away from the surface of the tire so that the tire will make contact with the road. That is why it is easy to hydroplane on worn tires. The water can't get out from under the tire fast enough and you end up riding on water.
Does the tread pattern on tires really make a difference in performance?
Yes they do. The shape of the tread displaces water in a particular way. The faster you can move water, sand, dirt, etc., the better the performance.
