Other then that I'd choose Potenza RE-11's

or RE-01R's (if you can still spot some)

I did two 35 minute sessions at Mosport in the rain Sunday morning ... and although I could imagine a dedicated rain tire being better, I was impressed with both the braking force and the turning force I could generate in the rain with the Azenis ... like I said, I can't make a comparison, but I can tell you that I was one of the faster cars in the wet and felt extremely comfortable with the grip I had.
