After putting over 50, 000 miles on in Washington State; I would rate Continentals above any other when it comes to wet weather riding. Because of their tread compound they stick. I'd ridden a lot of miles before them but after the first set I won't go back. I may try different tires on some of my other bikes, but for my main rider, I'll keep the proven. They also wear well at 3500 miles for a rear.
BTW as you're from London; western Washington (Puget Sound) is very wet. If you ride you get wet. Period.
