Any ideas or opinions on a great set of all season tires? My current PSS's are next to balled and winter is drawing near, but my only problem is that I can't fully commit to a proper set of winter tires, my budget won't allow for two tire purchases within two seasons.
So, I'm looking for a set of all seasons that can get my ZHP and I through the Chicago winter(obviously if the road is iced over I won't be out driving, I just need something that won't get me killed)
My budget hits at around $800, going to get them installed and everything professionally so that adds another hundred bucks.
Any help?

DWS 06 is kind of the go to UHP all-season tire for a lot of folks. It's the next generation of the original DWS, which was way ahead of the pack for a long time. Especially in the snow. The Michelin is now possibly a little bit better of a tire, but it'll cost ya more.

A great "budget" option is the BFG a/s 3. It'll save ya $100 over the contis.

Thank you! I'll have to see if they sell them at my local dealership, if not I'll definitely go DWS06
