i've used the Toyo spectrum a few times before, very good tires through out the seasons espically with chicago's winters. they usualy last a decent 5 years but the thing is im not sure if they discontinued them or not....my brother uses them as well but couldn't locate and dealer that had any or any website that carried them.

I liked the Goodyear Eagle GT's but have recently switched to Yokohama Avid EnVigor's they are much more responsive, less road noise, and handles great in rain/snow all at a cheaper price as well.

ive got BFGoodrich Advantage T/A's just on the front bc im not able to afford all 4 right now, but they are a very impressive tire. granted ive only had then for about 5k miles, so im not sure how reliable the 60K mile warranty claim is, but if i were to one-up, i would most likely go to the Traction T/A's. I have a feeling you would be pleased with the BF's. btw, exceptional winter traction for an all-season performance tire.

I run a Hankook Optimo H727. Be careful about which Hankook Optimo you get if you go that route, theres about 3 optimos. They're kidn of noisy, but come with a 100,000 mile warranty. I never ran this car on a stock tire, but I know they have about twice as much tread as my National Ovations ever had on them. They run great in the wet, great in the dry... and in NC I haven't had much of an opportunity to test them in the snow. They are kind of noisy. My parents minivan has the same tire, so that tells you what kind of tire it is right there. I kind of gave up on the racing deal and decided my FWD V6 wasn't a race car. haha. A lot of people here like to argue with me on that point.
