Best Tyres for Wet Conditions

Can someone give me some advice on good tyres for wet conditions on the road, It is coming to winter in England and at the moment I have 1.5" by 26" schwalbe Marathons, which are great in dry conditions, but slippy in the wet.
I have been looking at Schwalbe Big Apple tyres, but unsure if they would be suitable for my mountain bike frame, Until today, i had never heard of Balloon tyres, and this is what they are classed as, but they have good reviews, I was thinking of 2.125" by 26"
Any suggestions would be appreciated?
Thanks
