Default Need more grip!!!!

I need some advice on car tyres. :P
Ive got a clio and the grip I get from the standard tyres is abysmal!! just the slightest sign of dampness on the road and there all over the place
I was thinking of getting those extra wide wheels you see on boyracers which I heard give you a hell of a lot of grip. But today someone mentioned that these are only good in dry, and in the wet, because they have such a large surface area in contact with the road, they tend to loose grip easier and aquaplane. I do push the car quite hard, especially around the corners so I need something with more traction.
Any would-be-boy-racers willing to give me some advice
