Get Toyo tires. Toyo doesn't have a large budget for advertisements. Instead they focus on having great technologies on their summer and all-seasons.

It all depends on what you're looking for.
I work for a high-end car dealership and there is one thing that I can tell you....
For our Canadian climate there is no such thing as an "all season" tire.
You need a winter tire for winter (4 months a year) and summer or all season tire for spring summer and fall (the other 8 months).

If you drive a sports car or sporty car and you like it to handle like it's on rails then go for a strictly summer tire or a high-end all season (V or Z Rated).
If you drive a sedan then get a decent all-season tire.
You don't have to spend a lot to get a good tire.
Brands I'd stick with are Goodyear, Michelin, Toyo, Yoko, Pirelli, Conti and the best bang for your buck would be Kumho.

If you'd like to do more research on tires check out www.tirerack.com
