Default It's not considered all-season, as it has insufficient shoulder grooves to pass the
M+S traction test.

Dunlop SP Sport 5000 seems to be highly recommended around here.

Default Or Michelin Pilot Sport A/S if you have the $$$. Also, ...
on the low-end, I've heard good things about Bridgestone 950s.

Default How about RE910's!
Doug,

I just bought a set of Bridgestone Potenza RE910s. They're all season, performance tires. They ride awsome and are fairly inexpensive. I've had Yokohamas, Michellin and Goodyear... The Bridgestones by far surpass them.

Take care!
