Summer tires are great in the rain. Michelin Pilot PS2's, Dunlop Sport Maxx's, Goodyear Eagles, Pirelli P-Zeros... any of those are going to be outstanding at high speed wet weather driving.
Nitto NT05 European Car Magazine has recently reviewed a set of Nitto NT05 tires and posted the review on their site. \"The Nitto team put its test time on the Nurburgring to good use; the NT05 exceeded my expectations in both handling and straight-line performance.\"

take a look at the Michelin Primacy MXV4 (620 tread rating) if you want the potential to get more miles on the tires
cant beat the tire he mentioned ^^^, try michelin pilot exalto a/s, ive had great luck with them, often times passing subarus on hills
I have 225/45-17 Michelin Pilot Alpin 2's on S-line 5 spoke wheels, worked perfect last year in quite a few storms, great on ice, I could drive comfortably at 40-50 MPH on unplowed highway
I have Michelin X-Ice tires on 18 inch wheels, and I have been very happy with the performance in winter conditions. Yes, they were kind of expensive. Last winter in MN was a crapfest, and I felt very comfortable with those tires in that size.
Nitto Neo Gen tire received second place overall with the editors commenting that the Nitto Neo Gen had basically tied with first place. Fifteen tires from several tire manufacturers were tested in nine categories, mainly focusing on dry handling and traction, wet handling and traction, and ride comfort. All tires in the test were sized 225/40R18. All tires were tested using an Audi A3 3.2 on a closed test course. This data was combined with results from independent tread-wear testing which evaluated tread wear up to 12,000 miles. The Nitto Neo Gen had a strong showing in all tests. The Neo Gen received a ranking of Very Good in both dry and wet braking and Good in both dry and wet handling and hydroplaning. The Neo Gen also received high marks for noise, ride comfort and rolling resistance, scoring Very Good for all categories. The Neo Gen was also one of the most affordable tires tested. Because of the Neo Gen's balance of dry and wet performance, and ride comfort, the editors recommended it as one of their top picks.
I have this tire from discount and so far I've been really impressed. Good ride, quiet, and its done everything I've asked performance wise.
My wife's CR-V has Michelin Artic Alpins, they work OK but they emit a really loud "whistle" on wet asphalt.
