New tire suggestions
I have 15K miles on my car and the rears need to be replaced. Since the car is my daily driver and I live in Northern VA, I was thinking of moving over to an all season tire. Does anyone have any recommendations?
I'm looking at the following on tire rack:
Continental ExtremeContact DWS (Ultra High Performance All-Season)
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus (Ultra High Performance All-Season)
Pirelli P Zero Nero All Season (Ultra High Performance All-Season)
Or should I stick to a summer only tire?

ive had great experiences with the continental extreme contact tires and if u decide to stick with summer tires then definitely go with the pilot super sports......i have them on my SL 55 and they are awesome......

Ditto with the the Michelin PSS for summer tires. Personally, I would stick with summer tires and throw on another car a set of cheaper, narrower, wider sidewall winter tires that are more effective in the snow for the less than half a dozen of heavy snow days. At least that's what I'm doing and I'm near Chicago. However, I'm not sure about the precipitation condition in northern VA. If you go for all season, I would go for the Pirelli Nero.
