Not an attempt to be argumentative, but there are really only two kinds of wet conditions. Standing water or exposed wet asphalt. There is pretty much no middle ground. There is a puddle or there is not.
If the asphalt is exposed, tread patterns are moot and a soft rubber compound provide the best grip. If there is standing water I avoid it at all costs.
