Who should I speak to about sourcing some wet weather tyres to fit 18" wheels for my E36 track car.

Only needed for occasional use so 'used' would be fine.

Any suggestions?

Do you allready have the rims ?

I would suggest a spare set of rims smaller diameter and fitting a tyre with a higher profile for use in the wet, higher more flexible trye walls will give better grip in wet/damp conditions.

Yes; already have 18" rims so will have to stick with 18" tyres too.
