I've found Yokohama AD08R's were pretty good on my track car, like you I drive to trackdays and these seemed very good in the dry but also good enough on the road on a damp day!
If longevity is more important than top performance, then I highly recommend Yokohama Ascends. We have almost 200k on our CC and mostly used Conti's with some others along the way. These Yokohamas are awesome and wear ridiculously well! We are in FL so lots of rain in the summer.
So the tires are beyond a success, better than I hoped. Twice I've taken the spot I referred to in another post (about the stock Kynergy's) where I turn right at a Stop and go up a slight grade and with any foot on the gas the car breaks away. In these tires, has not happened, even when I have tried to push it. And that AWD sensation continues to be active. I felt it twice this morning: I make a turn, the front end responds, and then the back just snap! (s) right into line. The car is so much more solid through turns than it was, and I would say it is in no way inferior to my old Juke!
I just picked up a set of Yokohama Avids from Tire Rack mounted to Sparco Terras. Look great, quiet tires with excellent light snow traction.
I have Nokian SUV3 (I think) all weather tires on my AWD Rogue. They are much, much better than the factory supplied all season tires. I would rate the winter traction at about 90% of a winter ice tire. In the summer they're a little loud but still perform well.
I had WRG3’s on my car and honestly they were fine. Maybe it’s because I have never had winter tires so they felt like a nice improvement over the regular ones, but I had them for maybe 5 winters and never had any issues at all.
I run Nokian WRG3s on a Civic. I found they were great, particularly in the shoulder seasons -- it means I don't switch to my winters until it's actually fully winter. Great for those times (like this october) where the weather is all over the place.
All weather tires are amazing, they act like winter tires , and they act like summer tires.
I had Nokian WGR3 at the time.

I had a set of Nokian Rotiivas with similar cracking, 30k miles on them and 50% tread left, but the tires were 5 years old. I had a blow out and nearly flipped my truck. Replace them
