Grand Touring All Season: Bridgestone Serenity
Ultra High Performance All Season: Bridgestone Pole Position RE960 A/S

I have the latter tires but still use dedicated snow tires for winter, even though the poles are all seasons. I just don't like driving in snow.

Bridgestone RE960 - great tires. I have 18K miles on them and still runs great.

Yoko Avid V4S. This is my 4th set for my other Hondas. Great wet and dry performance and long thread life, but not good for heavy snow or icy condition. Well, you probably should get good snow tires under those conditions anyway.

No flatspotting or mileage problem. What tire pressure did you use? If it's too low, that would cause the problems you are experiencing.

I have V4Ss also & don't have the problems...but then again, I'm in SoCal...I don't think I will ever by another tire that's not a Yok...I think they're the best

I've got the Avid V4S, have not noticed flatspotting (central Ohio, pretty cold winters), but they're pretty worthless in any amount of snow. Pretty good otherwise.

I just ordered the Falkens, ZE-912 for stock rims, $84 per tire. pretty good wet/dry traction.

I am in the same position, looking to replace the OEM tires on my 2006 TSX with 45K miles. I was leaning toward the Dunlop SP Sport Signature 225/45ZR17 from Tirerack. They are currently running a $50 rebate. Good reviews about use in Northeast USA.
