Default All season tires and ski rack recommendations

Hi guys,

Getting ready for the winter snowboard season and looking to pick up all-season tires (don't need winter here in Seattle) and a ski rack.

Do you guys have any experience or recommendations? I've been looking at getting the Goodyear F1 All Seasons and getting a thule rack... Better options out there? Thanks!

Default just got Dunlop M3's for winter, had Pirelli WinterSport 240s they were great

the M3's are rated better all around as I found out this year.

Only the Blizzaks specifically say EXTRALOAD.
