All the new sports touring tyres will be great in the wet.

I use Michelin pilot road 2 dual compound 2CT. Also tried the PR3 which is also good but cost more.

They give me full confidence in the wet and in the dry.

Bridgestone new T30s for me. Could brake real hard on track in the wet without them locking. But as Al said, probably the same for all modern sport touring tyres.

Thanks for the advice, as I am not familiar with the latest tyres and obviously don't want to waste money
