If you want a bit more of an aggressive tread design, lower profile, and care more about performance during the dry seasons and snow/heavy rainfall isn't as much as an issue, I've been a faithful user of BF Goodrich G-Force Sports for years, just ordered another set last week in fact. They are a great balance between performance and price (They're even cheaper than the Pilot Exaltos), but they are not considered a true all season tire.

RE: Good all season tires
I've owned three sets of falken ziex512s (now discontinued and followed by the 912s) and they've never disappointed in all the weather I've driven in. They grip nicely in the wet and snow. I've been in some heavy snow falls and never had issues with getting stuck, a hit of sliding in deep snow but no biggie

RE: Good all season tires
I have the ziex 512s on my steelies as well as the summer rims. Like Erick said, they grip nicely in the snow.

Got a question? Use THIS!

RE: Good all season tires
Usually i read the reviews on tires.com and see what others have experienced and do a little research. It doesnt snow in florida, so its wet weather tires 24/7. I have the old Kumho 712's and work great in the rain.. But ill prob get Dunlop Direzza, Nitto NeoGens, or a couple other choices.

I had 512's but they were kinda hard (360 treadwear rating) and in wet doing a straight line were good, but turning in wet caused oversteer and i had to be careful..

So, just do your research and youll find what your looking for.
