Question all season tires

hey guys...
think that my stock michelin tires are wearing out on my gen 5 camry. i hope to use them for one more winter but i don't think that it's adviseable. in any case, was looking at a new set of all season and was refered to the Toyo TPT set. apparently $600 CDN, for the tires and install. not too bad, but was wondering if there were any other recommendations. i am open to everything except michelins.

i pretty much want ride comfort and relatively good grip especially in rain and snow.
also, if there was a set of just summer tires, what would i get with comfort and good grip for rain? and then what would i get for just winter?

any suggestions or comments?

From my experience with these 'all seasons', I keep the air pressure at 2 to 3 psi over the recommended from the car's sticker, and rotate every 10,000 kms.
I have driven over 50 000 kms and have used 3/32 of tread. This is year round use.

Check out www.tirerack.com. They have posted results of extensive tests they have run on many brands of tires.
