Default Gary, recommendation for Ultra High Perf all season

Gary,

I have a 06 A6 4.2 s-line with summer tires (Nexen N3000). I live in Nothern Virginia and while the weather is mostly nice even during the winter season, we get some snow once in a while and I am concerned that summer tires are a bad choice.

I do not want to have a dedicated set of winter tires/wheels and as such I am looking at UHP all season. What would you recommend as the best all season tires? I am looking for the best tires in term of performance (dry, wet) that would allow me to safely drive my car on the rare occasion when there is some snow.

Thx.

Top tires in that category include the Goodyear F1A/S, Bridgestone RE 960A/S, and Yokohama Advan S4.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&amp;url=/tires/index.jsp">tires</a></li></ul>

Default How about the Pirelli PZero Nero M&S?

I thought I heard these might be good tires as well for what I am looking for. What are your thoughts?

Thx.

Default they are a step below the 3 gary mentioned. The Yoko and Bridgestone have more siping

which would be better in the winter (more biting edges). The F1 A/S is brand new. but so far it is receiving very good feedback.
