Remember, driving in "rain" and driving in "standing water" are two different things. RE070s are okay in the former but not the latter.

If you want to snmag a set of tires before saturday, you can get them mounted at Sid's for $60. TireRack only mounts if you order wheels and tires together.

Chris, if you're concerned about wet handling, get a set of Kumho MXs from TireRack instead of the 215s from the RS25.com vendor. They're not as sticky dry, but handle rain well. Being that you'll have two sets of wheels though, I personally would strongly consider the azenis. In STS/TDSP with 215s, you will actually have a decent car.
