Can anyone recommend fast and grippy tyres for use in races in the wet?

thanks

    for road wheels try pro races or tri comps....bith pretty darn good.

    In wet conditions don't forget to lower the pressure slightly to 100psi otherwise have them at 116psi

    Not GP4000s or Schwalbe Stelvios - based on my recent experiences in Belgium with Conti's 'finest' or watching the Gerolsteiner riders sliding around in Milan-San Remo. I've found Veloflex Paves to be good, Michelins to be OK and Vredestein Fortezzas too. Running lower pressures and fatter tyres makes a big difference too.
