All Weather Tires

To All,

I see that there are many posts on all-weather tires but they are fragmented. I was wondering if we can make one post with all the tires that are out there that are good for our year maxima (stock rim size). This would be good because it would reduce redundancy in ppl asking the same thing. If there is one, I am sorry, I didnt know.

So far the tires that I know of are:

Dunlop Sport A2 - Very good, low road noise, soft rubber, does not last long
Yokohama ES100S - ???
Bridgestone Potenza RE950 - Very good but has some road noise
Bridgestone Potenza S02 - ???
Bridgestone Potenza S03 - ???
Sumitomo HTRT - ???

Please add your comments as well as any other tires you think are pretty much all around good all-weather tires.

Much appreciated,
Gmax

Opinions (and that's exactly what they are!) about what tires are "best" are far too differing to have one thread about it without it turning into a monster huge thread or a flamewar. Forget about it.

I'm pretty sure most of those tires you have listed there are summer tires, except the Dunlops and maybe the Sumitomos(?).

If I were you, I'd just go to the Tire Rack and do some research, as it's a great way to get a feel about what's available and what are good if you don't know much about your choices to begin with.
