Tires YOKOHAMA or Continental
I have Conti DW in 225/40-18s and love them. Tirerack has them for $144/ea right now. 340 AA A I've also owned Mich PS, PS2, Conti DWS, and P Zeros in this size.
I gave up on 512's, they stretched awesome but i found that s drives stretch almost as good and they come in 195/45/17. Plus they are a nice v tread and not an all season tire. Grip great compared to 512's.
I have the Continental Extreme Contact DW tires and have no complaints. Good price. Good grip. Comfortable.
The car handles exceptionally well with them. The West Virginia turn pike is easily handled at 95mph. Downfall- tires need to be rotated sooner then normal and they always run thin way before their due date.
For all season , Continental Extreme Contact DWS are great, kinda weak sidewalks though.
Now, I have had two sets of these, in addition to quite a few of my friends running these tires, nary a problem.
My Volvo had a pretty new set of Conti DWS's and they worked well in mild snow and really nicely in the rain, even when they wore down into the "D."
I like Continental DWS on my R. They are a good set up for heavy rain and mild snow, and fairly cheap.
I have Continental 4000 700x25 tires. In 4000mi I got 2 flats and the tires look good for a few thousand miles more. Low rolling resistance, fast, great handling. I highly recommend Continental tires.
I have Yokohama AVSDBs they are pretty bad in the snow But fun in empty parking lots
