All season tires for 2003 Celica GTS

[BlackIrish44]

I'm looking for a good all season performance tire that has good grip in wet and dry conditions. I would also like it to be compatible in snow. I have researched Michelin, BF Goodrich, Pirelli, and Yokohama. I currently have the OEM Yokohama on it now and cannot wait to replace them. They have been horrible in even light rain. They hydroplane, and are a joke in light snow. I do not feel safe in my car with these tires. Help!!

I'm using Bridgestone Potenza G009 on my Lancer RA. Not bad in the winter. Very good in wet and dry.

I personally will never buy all-seasons again.. A tire is only good in one set of conditions and that's it. If it has a lot of deep sipes.. it'll suck for dry traction.. if it has too little.. it'll suck in the snow.

Honestly, this past winter I bought a set of true snow tires.. I outperformed my friends WRX in the snow.. That's in my 6th gen 3sgte swapped celica with a limited slip trans.. He was slidin all over.. and I had near perfection traction no matter what..

They are also decent in dry conditions.. I'm still running them with no problems.

You can pick them up on tirerack for about 50 dollars a piece..

So for me it's a good set of summer tires and a set of snow tires..

With the summer ones on nice rims... But, not everyone wants to spend that kind of $. A/S are a trade-off... the performance Pilot Exalto A/S's I have aren't quite as "sticky" as performance summer tires... but, they perform adequately in the snow... and they've lasted over 60K so far... & look to have @ least another 20-30K to go... well worth the steep price I paid for them.

That being said........ when these finally do wear out... I'll probably go the summer/winter tire set route.
