    a smaller sidewall will reduce tire roll and probably wont cost you anything extra if you just get them a little smaller. Do you know what the numbers on your tires mean?

    Im not sure what kind of tire in that size would be best in wet conditions, Ive always had low profile high performance tires, so your best bet would be to ask the tire place what would be best for wet conditions in your budget.
