try Yokohama's A048 tyre. They're as slick as the law allows. They say you can drive with them in the wet, but I wouldn't advise it. These are the ones that come on the lotus exige as standard.

Had A048R fitted to my kit car, a Chris Hollier Mosquito, and the best tyres i have ever used, but terrible in the damp and damned scary in the rain, lol.

Moving onto the Avon AC10 which is meant to be better and worth a few mills more.

If you mean the Avon ACB10, you must be joking if you think they will be better in the wet or damp, as they are even more a slick than the 48rs.  They are officially called a wet slick and are only load legal when they are new.

Here's a pic of both to demonstrate, i've had experience of both:
