I've got Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics and they are great dry or rain. I'm actually very surprised how much traction the Boxster has in the wet and snow (with winter tires of course).

I've never had any hydroplaning. I can get the back end to break loose on the wet, but it regains traction quickly - even when keeping the power on after it breaks loose. I don't think I could spin the car in the wet. I've driven the car in light rain, heavy rain, and drying conditions on the track. I've had the back end break loose in those conditions, but again, it was very easy to recover. In heavy rain I was passing Carrera 4s, and caught a Lancer Evo. My car is a 99 non-S, so it only has 200 hp.
