Default Best 18inch All Seasons Performance Tire

I live in Memphis and this far south we do not get a ton of snow. Plus if it does snow my office is just 7 miles from home.

In case of Heavy snow...I will use my wife's BMW X5.

So rather than invest in snow tires...I want a good all season performance tire that will "keep me on the road" in case I have to make it home in the snow...but will not sacrifice too much performance in the twisties.

Also, having the all seasons will let me just use my Summer tires June through September and get a much longer life out of them.

Try looking into Michelin A/S 3s. Read really good reviews on them. No personal experience, though.

Contis are a really good A/S tires but I do believe they are not as performance oriented as the Michelins or the Potenzas. Better tread life though and less expensive.
