What's everyone in the Bay rolling on?

Sup everybody,

i just got some new shoes for the suby and was just wondering what everyone was using to handle all the crap roads around here??!? ( well in the south bay at least, haha). it'll just be for driving around here, i doubt i'll go to the snow this year . . . stupid work . . . but i might, what would be a good all season performance tire? i've done some research and have come up with a lot, but most info was out of date so i figured i'd get a collective of the locals. i don't need an all out performance, but some good grip would be nice, i don't want something all too pricey ( trying to keep out of trouble with this car, haha) some advice would be awesome, thanks everyone !

-Don

I have been happy with my G009's there good when it's dry, but really shine when it get's wet.
