Heres the scoop.... I have roughly 50k on my Yokohamas and while I can squeeze one more rotation out of them they are just about done. Now if all goes well once I move in w/ my G/F I'll be picking up another car (hopefully somehting sporty). She takes the train to work so she wont be using the 6 too much but my commute will be about 80miles/day so I will most likely rotate between the 2.

That being said should I shoot for another All-season or try and get a rain/winter tire aka basically something that will be better in crappy weather. I'd also like something w/ semi-decent treadlife if possible.

All suggestions are welcomed.

I'll keep them in mind. NJ does'nt really get too much snow anyway so that wouldn't be a problem. what about treadlife?

General Exclaim UHP

General is owned by Germany-based Continental AG. About half the price of Michelin Pilots they've worked well in all conditions and absolutely OWN the previous Bridgestone Potenzas in rain or sleet.
