So, I'm a big proponent of having two sets of wheels - one with summer tires, and one with winter. If you don't have much of a winter, you can probably replace the winter with all-season. Running your tires in only the temperatures they were intended for will increase the life, and you can be sure you'll always have best performance.

I've had a set of Michelin Pilot Super Sports on my 986 for a couple weeks now and I've been thrilled. Better than any all-seasons I've had in the past in the rain too. I know all tires feel their best when new, but these have definitely exceeded expectations so far.

Heard nothing but good things about those Firestone Indy 500s too. Looks like an incredible bargain, I'll probably get a set for my 924 once I get caught up on maintenance.

Never been a big fan of all-season tires in general, but I've still had a few over the years. My favorites were the Hankook Ventus Noble on my old Infiniti G35. Good price point too.
