just go with whatever will last the longest and is cheapest

its not like you are going to be auto crossing that thing or something

also are you in north carolina?

if so, you dont really have to worry about getting any kind of all season tire

good tire as well, replaced the yk420.....it's an asymetrical tire as opposed to the exalto which is directional......in theory asymetrical is better for griping in light snow/ice

Bodi, I'd go with continental extremecontact. They're high performance all season and I love them! Excellent in the rain and the tread looks like its good in the snow (has a good rating on tirerack for snow but I haven't tested yet).

however they are unidirectional.
