three wheels on my wagon

I don't know if it is me but after recently(ish) switching to clinchers (Schwalbe Ultremo zx tubeless) from tubs I find that I now have no confidence in cornering. Now this will be my first winter on a bike in 25 years so the greasy damp roads could well be the cause of this but I had no problems with my tubs from February this year and could fling my bike about with no fear. The Ultremos have had good write-ups for their handling and road holding. So basically is this due to the tyres, the conditions , clinchers in general, my increased years and fear of the long recovery from hitting the tarmac now takes or what?
I suppose I could just put my tubs back on but I would have to buy some new spares and don't really want the expense or to explain to my beloved who bought me the new wheels and tyres with out good back up.
Or I could throw all my spare cash at getting my trike back up and running and not worry about the corners at all.
