Need opinions on best ALL SEASON Max performance

I currently have a set of Goodyear Eagle F1 DS3 in 245/45/ZR18 on my car, they have about 30,000mi on them and are definately going to have to go before the snow starts in 4-5 months or so. I have a kind of annoying wailing noise when driving now too, im pretty sure its these tires, as they are almost to the wear bars in back now.

I need a tire that is going to give me another 30-40k before I trade in the car, looking for A/S high performance.

Has anyone tried the Pirelli P Zero Nero M+S, these are the ones I am considering.

Any other recomendations? I want a tire that is quiet and offers the best performance you can gat in an all season.

Not erally uber-thrilled with them. In all honesty, the Avon Tech 550s seem to be getting rave reviews from EVERYONE.

Yeah I've heard pilots wear too fast and are noisy. Seem to me that the Avon do get good reviews, but I am done with untested tire companies. Toyo or Yokahamas will be my next tire manufactur purchase

I've been doing a TON of research on All-Season tires, and seems as though the best money can buy are the Bidgestone Turanza LS-Zs. Unfortunatley, they cost a small fortune...
