Back to the OP get full 4 wheel alignment done. Don't bother with cheap 2 wheel done - go somewhere with the more expensive equipment and have a full 4 wheel alignment done

is there no point on the rears? as there is no adjustment only when the bearings fail you end up with some camber? i know where i go they put the boards on all 4 wheels but only looked at the front

Actually re-reading your first post it is either you have suddenly got a soft front tyres or you are using excess throttle or you really do have poor wet weather tyres.

You state it is fine in the dry but poor in the wet so it probably isn't a suspension, alignment or set up issue but one of the above.

I guess it could be alignment that is highlighted in the wet but I wouldn't be so confident diagnosing that.

dan: four wheel alignment is better because more sensitive equipment is used. Additionally the four wheel stuff also measures where the rear is pointing (it won't be where Peugeot intended - it almost never is) and that will be taken into account when setting up the front.

You can do this with two wheel kit but most operators wouldn't know how or haven't done it for so long they have now forgotten.
