Need Tires asap
Looking for tires that will get me thru Cleveland winter. Looking for all season tires because don't feel like buying just winter tires. Anyone help me out? I read some other posts but mostly people were talking either summer tires or full winter tires like blizzaks

Top tires we carry right now are the B-Stone RE960's and Michelin Sport AS+. Both are excellent tires and with awd you'll have no winter issues.

Shop around a bit with different stores and prices on both winter and all-seasons. I was in the same boat of wanting all-seasons too, then I found a store that was getting huge discounts on sets of the Blizzak LM-25s and I got them for about 200 dollars cheaper than a set of decent all-seasons. All-seasons will be fine, but snow tires are even better, and if you can get them for cheaper than all-seasons it helps with the fact that you can't use em in the summer

Ya I got LM-25's for around $300 a set from TireRack. Beefy too 255/40-17.
All seasons are not good enough in the winter or summer for the caliber of the EVO.

If I had to go with all-seasons, I'd probably give the Bridgestone RE960s a try. Overall, you'd be much better off with dedicated winter/summer sets.
