I have Yokohama Avid V4S hi-performance all-season tires. They are pretty good, not too $$, and they work fine even when there's quite a bit of snow. Also consider Toyo Proxes 4 but they don't last as long.

Just replaced mine a couple of months ago with 225/17 50 Bridgestone RE 960. These replaced Michelin Pilot A/S. The Michelin's were great but wore out after about 32k.

A good value, with good performance is the Falken 912. I have a while yet before I need tires, but I think these will be a decent replacement.

I have the Yoki v4s and one of the best I've had so far on this car. OEM's suck and the Conti xtremecontacts didn't last as long as I expected. Did ok in the snow but obviously didn't buy them again even though they are cheap. Love the Yoki's though.

Those are great tires for the price. I had those for a couple of years and they performed very nicely.

If you're looking for a great all-season and you have the cash, go with Pirelli P-Zero Neros M+S. While not as grippy as Summer tires when it's dry outside, they're fantastic in every condition. I highly recommend them!

Ya i picked them as a good compromise as we get nasty Winter conditions and I'm too lazy/cheap to run two sets of tires/rims
