Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3's will out-do any tire on the market for wet/dry performance.

For brakes get Thermo-Quiet pads, as long as your rotors don't have any deep grooves in them, don't replace them, if you do, just get the cheapest rotors you can find, rotors are rotors are rotors. It's a piece of solid steel, there's no difference between expensive ones and cheap ones
