For my TSX I get the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4. They're an ultra high performance all-season rated for excellent for wet and dry and good for winter/snow. They're good Ca tires for some trips to Tahoe. Still need chains if it's snowing but that's fine.

The other ones that I've heard are good but never used personally are the Continental ExtremeContact ones. I believe they're also supposed to be excellent for the rain and good for snow. I've read that there are lots of Miata drivers that drive in the winter in some snow that swear by them.

My Miata has limited selection because of the wheel size so I just look for ultra summer tires since I don't drive it much in the rain.

Mrs Bk97 runs those Continentals as summer tires for her Mini. I can't remember the last time I drove her car, but I do recall that they're pretty good in a variety of conditions.

I run Michelin's Pilot Sport 4S in the summer and their Pilot Alpin PA4 in the winter. Both are fantastic. Incredible grip in all conditions and the PA4's are remarkably good in deep snow. Both sets seem to last forever too. I have around 30k miles on the summers and 20k on the winters they still have a ton of life.

Luckily I don't have to worry about winter tires. I think you can't go wrong with Michelins for the most part. They're my tire of choice if they have the size I need.
