What all-seasons should I wrap the sawblades in?

Bought the max 2 years/22k miles ago with slightly used BFG Touring T/As (215/60/15), and its about that time for replacement. I thought the T/As were a decent tire...I had the same tires on my acura as Dunlop D60 A2 replacements and they were a little less of a performer, but I think treadwear is better.

Now dunlop offers their new Sport A2 series - the main complaint on tirerack is treadwear, which hopefully shouldn't be that much of a concern since the max should only last another year or so. Anyone want to comment about the new A2s, or any other comparable all-season 215/60/15?

You should take a look at the Toyo TPT, it is a good tyre in all conditions and it is not that expensive

Recommend you check out tirerack.com...excellent reference source for tires. They provide all the specs and there is a section on there where owners provide their feedback and ratings. Good luck shopping... ed

Thanks for the suggestions so far Yeah, I've been doing some reading on tirerack, though when you give people an open forum for reviews, you still have to be careful exactly how far you let the reviews guide your wallet.

hombre - work at Lamson, Dugan & Murray LLP in regency. Civil defense law firm. Where are you at in Omaha? You wouldnt happen to be skilled with suspension work/front strut installs, would you?
