Top Rally2 driver tyre brands are covered here
As for the wet tyres wearing out, remember that this rally has less kilometres than on a normal rally. Basically Friday is half the normal length and Sunday would be on the short end compared to normal rally Sundays. It's also interesting that there's services between every Monza stage, so the tyres can really be optimized.

Didn't check there.
I'd say on Canarias there were some small indications that Michelin wets might be slightly better when it was very wet, while Pirelli wets were better when it was damp. But temperatures were different and tarmac is also different.

I think that this number of max tyre changes is mainly used to calculated maximum allocation per event, as it's written on that article in Sporting Regulations.
And if I am not mistaken, WRC cars can drive without spare tyres (Tanak drove Sunday in Turkey 2019 without them).

Evans only finished 3rd in the Yaris behind Daniel Cronin & Eddie Doherty. With his experience on Irish roads I'd expect him to beat these guys if he was still using the Polo R5. He doesn't seem...
