When I look for a tire, I almost ignore ride, sound, and wear characteristics. I want the tire that has the most traction and can stop the car in a short (albeit maybe only 5-10 feet shorter) distance.
Some possibilities include the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup. This tire doesn't do well in the rain, so I can understand why this may not be a good choice for half of the country.
Others include the Goodyear Eagle F1, Michelin Pilot Sport, and one of the Bridgestone Potenza (either S-02 or S-03, I forgot).
If it rains a lot, maybe add the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S.
Of course, change over to winter tires in the winter.
Some people disagree and want to compromise and have less performance and less winter safety by getting all season tires. I am not in this camp.
