General 54 Sporting lairy in the wet?

Try Yokohomo's, got cup's on mine, and work extremely well in dry (even in 165 profile they are very grippy), and better than most in the wet, but don't shed that well when in standing water, tend to aquaplane quite alarming.

Stay away from Eagles if you want something that lasts. They don't grip aswell as Pirellis (well P6000 and P8000's anyway) and didn't even last 6000miles on my mums audi, but then thats 4wd and 220bhp of v6 fury.
 
And just to throw another one into the equation:

I've got Michelin Pilot Exalto's on mine (all round).

They're the nuts. Grip like a maniac in the dry, very good in the wet and wear well too. Not cheap but worth every penny. (I got them for about £40 a tyre (for some reason really cheap in my size) at Costco - 195/50/15).

Never had Toyo Proxes myself, but I've been in mates cars that have and they didn't feel safe one bit!

I've have only heard bad things about them! Way over rated it seems!

I was gonna go for them too (brilliant looking tread!!) but was categorically told not to bother. Apparently they're a bit better on wider tyres (215 onwards) but not on the likes of 185 or 195's.
