I run the same size on my allroad (which eats tires). Have had the following on it:
Pirelli P6 - No good any where (took off shortly after buying car)
Kuhmo Ecsta ASX - No good in snow (but got 30K miles out of them)
Falken Ziex 512 - Short wear life, but can "get through" the spring/fall stuff. Cheap but fun tire. Looking at about 20K mile life
I run snows on separate rims in the winter regardless of the all wheel drive, similar to what you plan to do. I think I will be going with the Eagle GT when I need new all seasons (just purchased these for another car and am pleased thus far - good price too).
I have no experience with the Nokian WR (but from what I hear would be an excellent candidate for you) and also I have seen some pretty aggressive Yokohama Geolanders (used to have some on a company work truck).
Good Luck,
Nate
