I was just about to recommend the ContiExtremes as well. I have a set and I love 'em. Like Kingpin said, they are good in sun and rain. They look good, too

But that's just my opinion... Before I bought 'em, I made sure to read reviews anyplace on the web I could find them. Then when I went to order them, they were sold out. Pretty popular tire, I would say. But tirerack.com pulled through, and I got my tires much quicker than anticipated. So from that, I would say one more vote for ContiExtremes, and a vote goes to
www.tirerack.com, too!
