I have the Regatta2's on my Geo Prizm (it came that way)
As far as wear and wet traction, they are pretty good.
How do I know. I've had to replace three of them in the past week.
The first I replaced because I had a nail too close to the edge to repair.
Paid for the tire, and purchased road hazzard for the remaining three tires purchased from this tire dealer.
Two days later, I hop a curb in the dark and rain, and cut down the new tire. Replaced under road hazzard for $30 and I'm on the road again.
Yesterday, I'm filling up and I notice that the back tire on the same side has a bubble, so I take it in this morning for replacement (another $30) and after 20K miles on 2/32nds have worn away.
So these will definately last a long time. Not my first choice in a tire characteristic. But they seem to be a competent street tire. I have no idea how they will do in the snow, and they are not the highest performance tire out there.
But I'm not unhappy with the Goodyear Regatta2.
