I haven't had any issues with Marathons on wet pavement. I'm not sure if the Supremes would be better in that situation or not. Assuming the rubber was the same you'd have more of a contact patch with the Supremes [wider tire which can be run at lower pressure] so I suspect it would be a better tire in the wet.
