Question Changing out Stock tires for all season

Quick question. If I run up to Firestone/Goodyear/ or Tire Discounters, what tire selection would be the best for snow, but also a good tire year round? I'm not the best at selecting which tires to go with and would probably just take the advise of the salesman. I would rather have advise from those who drive the EVO. Also, I don't want two sets of tires, one for winter and one for summer. I just want a good set that will work throughout the year.

I'm not looking to spend a ton of money and don't mind sacraficing some performance. Price range $400 - $700.

Any suggestions? Looking to run up this week.

Thanks for your feedback!

For all season use try Nokian WR, Avon Tech M550 or Pirelli Zero M/S.

I second the Pirelli's P-Zero Nero...

Almost 8000 miles on them and they are perfect and great in snow / rain...

I'm gonna pick up a set of the Kumho ECSTA ASX's here in a few weeks.

I found them for $500 mounted and balanced at a local shop.

I'll check out the Pirelli's P-Zero Nero's tomorrow. Sounds like two of you gave them the thumbs up.

What do those run? Mounting/Balancing?

Thanks,
