I made some additional research and it seems that Nankang AR-1 grip almost immediately, even without warming up which sounds nice and just like what I'm looking for but when I look at them, even those Extreme VR2 that I posted look like chill, balanced rain tire XD Nankang seems like immediate death after encountering puddle.

Yeah fwiw I agree with above comments, shouldn't need your tires to be in optimal temp ranges to drive to and from work.
But, to keep the convo going. I live in Canada and for about half of our "track" season we're around that 18c mark or cooler (ie. I'm going to track on Saturday and its supposed to be 14c). No issues running RS4s, Nankang CRS, A052, or other similar 200tw. Going that direction you'd have much better tire life and less worries about rain etc.
