All-season tires recommendation for stock G35 sedan

Hi guys,

My stock '06 G35 sedan needs to have its Bridgestone tires replaced. I'm not looking to break the bank here and would prefer to get all-season tires. Keep in mind that I live in Vancouver (BC), where it rains quite a bit in the winter/spring. In terms of snow, it doesn't happen often enough to warrant snow tires but it does snow sometimes. Any good recommendations?

EDIT: opinions on Yokohama Advan S.4?

Thanks a lot!

I just recently picked up some Yokohama AVID Envigor all-season, love them, look good, ride smooth, no road noise (as of yet, still way too new), and they are pretty much praised by other G35 sedan owners (reviews from TireRack.com I think is where i read them), they have damn fine grip, and they wont cost you an arm or leg, local shop had me paying around $661 or so out the door, thats with labor and install, etc.

Wow that is a good deal. All the tire shops around where I live, including Costco, is charging around $1000 for Brdigestone Turanza tires (with something called serenity). I really need to find a better place to get tires...

Thanks for the reply!

I would recommend the Continental ExtremeContact DWS

quiet ride and handling is great all around.

Hey neighbor. I live just south of you and have pretty much the same weather.

I replaced my stock GS-As with Bridgestone Turanza Serenity performance touring tires mentioned above.

Zero degrade in performance (but I don't race my car) and they are super, super quiet.

Love 'em, and they do just fine in our weather.

Michelin Primacy MXM4 if you put a premium on ride quality. Mostly highway driving for me on concrete roads and I'm so glad I sacrificed some handling for these. They are particularly grippy in the rain, too.

That's what I have.

I drove through some DEEP snow with them this winter, although I have AWD so that helped. But i was very confident with them in 6" or more of snow

The Bridgestone Turanza Serenity series is going to be hard to beat. They work for me year-round; rain, snow, gravel; and in dry weather they have traction comparable to the outright racing tires of 20 years ago.

Check Tire Rack for survey results.

+1 on these as well. Great tire for the money. Bridgestones just are not worth the money IMO
