Wet pavement traction, deuce tires

Is there an index, number or an established methode to measure wet pavement
traction for commonly used deuce tires? We know the radials are far better
than the bias ply NDCC's, but what are the numbers? What about siped NDCC's?
The measurement should apply to new and used (say 50%) tires.

On long road trips, it's not possible to count on nice dry weather and the
tires do become a safety factor.

Any tire experts out there in MV-land?

Thanks,
