Best Tires for A-Spec?

I'm buying some A-Spec wheels and looking at Goodyear GT Allseasons.

http://www.samsclub.com/shopping/nav...=5&item=412026

I have to buy all-seasons because of weather where i live

Anybody used them before? Other suggestions for sub-$180 all-season tires for my new wheels?

I have the Eagle GTs but in the 17". Love them so far, but so far it only has 30 miles on it. Did not spin out in the rain like the stock michelins did.

Theres an Eagle GT thread out there.

I'm also looking tires for my A-Specs. On my stock rims, I like the Bridgestone RE960AS Pole Position all-season. TireRack doesn't list this tire in 235/40x18. But they have them in 245/40x18 for $195ea.

Getting some a-spec wheels soon, getting a good combo deal with the GT's on them... but you can find the GT's for good price (120ish) at tirerack.com....

How do you think they will last.
My TL has 48k miles 3rd set of tires Just bought some Brigstone Grids for the Factory 17' TL wheels. Nice pattern but they dont come in 18'. Getting a decnt deal on the Chrome A=spec 18' and would like a longer lasting tire than the Fusion I had.
I would like the grid's G019's nice pattern and 40k warranty.

I recently installed Falken FK-452's in 245/40-18. They look great, cost me less than $165 each, and are super quiet.
