Probably like a continental DW would be good. I don't use all seasons since I have serious winter weather but have always heard good things about them

I like Firestone Wide Ovals for All Season tires. Continue DW's are supposed to be awesome, too.

A Cobalt with snow tires on it does excellent in the snow, I drove mine up in the Caribou area during the winter with no problems when I had it

thats good news, I plan on modding during the winter month, gonna ride Box Stock till then. (need more presidents to mod the way i wanna mod). Last time I saw snow was maybe 2009(19ish) and i drove my dads Powerstroke. since then I've made it point to be stationed as far away from the slusshy wet sh*t as possible. Now I'm out and Back in MD GOtta get use to driving in that again

Also those running a Trifecta tune off the DSC/Traction Control switch may be interested in my other thread search "Quick Switch" here in the Tech section(didn't know where else to put it) its an easy DIY mod and damn if it wasn't worth the $3.00 and half an hour of my time.

All seasons are good in the dry and wet road conditions and useless in the snow

This.

I see maybe a week of light snow here in the Seattle area, I'll be getting winters this year after being stuck at home twice with all seasons.

I go sticky tires in the summer, aggressive winter tires in the snow season.

All seasons just don't cut it with spirited driving in nice weather, or in snow
