well Debbie,
since you have AWD, I think you could run 600 tread wear rated all-season
plastic tires and still have grip...
just push the pedal on the right...

seriously though, I don't think your Yokohama's are going to be any better
in the rain then the R-1's since you have almost none of the tread blocks
left on them... at least from what I remember last time I saw them
