Right now i'm running goodyear eagle GT. traction really good on dry and wet in the snow they arent that bad either, as long as your not trying to fly around and expect it to drive like an suv or truck.

General Exclaim UHP 225/40/18 here:

Great for dry or wet so far on 8" wide rims. Haven't really driven it in the cold or snow, and don't really plan to either...

stock eagle F1 super car tires ( the same one on c-vettes! ). Theyre all season and champs on snow/ice/track.

I prefer trojan magnums. They fit much better than regular condoms.

I just put a set on my SS/SC and really like the way they look on the car plus they are MUCH better in the snow .

for a good all season tire that can still be used for a summer tire i recommend the bfg g-force super sport. Its an ultra high performance all season tire, this tire has awesome wet and dry traction, ive been in some snow also and for an all season tire they are awesome.
