When replacing my summer tires (I have Nokian's for winter), I opted for Dunlop SP Sport Signature (considered High Performance All-Season).
I really wasn't concerned about "All-Season", as I have dedicated winter tires, but I did want the "W" weight rating for my SportWagon, so that really limited my choices. I also didn't want a noisy tire that wouldn't last, so that eliminated a lot of "Summer" performance tires.
The "All-Seasons" would typically be the best combination of quiet, long-life, wet and dry weather performance, and some snow/ice performance. Consumer Reports hasn't tested this tire (fairly new), but other Dunlop "All-Season" did poorly in snow/ice, perfect for my use. I'll probably just leave these on through Nov, take off 1st March. If I get caught in a little snow, should be OK, vs. some "Summer" tires. I can save the Nokians for Dec-Feb, probably get several more season out of them.
