Best tyres for V8S?

[Beast Master]

This has probably been asked a million times before, but I find the search unbelievably st so I will ask again! ;-)

I have a V8S on original wheels. So 205/60/15. The car came with Toyo Proxies TR1 on it. They look like new but are about 8 years old at this stage. They are good in the dry but lethal in the wet. I am not sure if that it due to their age, or if they are just a more dry summer focused tyre.

Living in Ireland I'll see more wet or damp roads than ideal warm dry roads. So does anyone has a recommendations for a good wet focused performance tyre?

Maybe something like Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance 205/60 R15 91 V ?

Thanks in advance!

Either of these should do the job, Uniroyal is an A for wet performance but the Dunlop at a B should be fine

I've got the Goodyears on my S2- they seem to work fine in the wet. Don't have the dry grip of the original Bridgestones but not noticeably different . HTH

While looking at your above suggestions, Bridgestone Turanza T005 popped up as a possible contender.
