Default I need help with WET tires please.

I recently totaled my 350z, it had the nt555's on it. I was driving in a straight line going 55 mph down the hwy and out of nowhere my car decided to hydroplane due to heavy rain and hit the median (I didn't do anything stupid, traction was on, I didn't press on the brakes, nor I accelerated.)

Now... I'm buying a 370z with 7800 miles on it, its got the stock bridge stones on it The tread on them is 7/32 on front, 6/32 on the back so How long would these tires last and how good are they with the rain. I've read in other posts that the hankook v12's are better or the potenza RE960AS. I live in Florida and it rains a lot without notice. So i need some good rain tires!

Thank you for your help!
