tires for wet and cold

I went to Les schwab today to see about getting some tires that may be a little better for the rain or colder weather coming soon and was suprised to learn there is not much out there. I am trying to stick with a very similar size but only found one all season. I have a set of LS 19 inch wheels from Ford racing. Toyo proxy 4. Any other ideas.
 
Continental makes a good tire for winter driving but I can't remember which model. Ask Pete.

I'm planning on getting winter tires as well. Have you considered getting 18" wheels dedicated for winter use?
there are a lot more tire choices in 18s than 19s.

The best I've used in the wet is the Michelin Pilot Super Sports. I had Pirelli Sottozero's as a winter tire (not just a wet tire) and found them great in the snow with my Audi TTS. I did buy Conti Extreme Contact DW's for the Boss but found them to be no where near the tire that the Michelin Pilot Super Sports.
