Bridgstone Potenza G009's are pretty decent all around tire. They handle great and work well in snow and rain if you don't have a heavy foot. I work for firestone and got a great deal on them but they should only cost around $350 for all four.

I've always had great traction with the Goodyear Eagle F-1's. Those hook in the rain like they do on dry roads. Very nice tire. Plus they are a run flat tire so that's always a good thing. Don't know how expensive they are though.

Goodyear Eagle F1 D3's work so well in the rain. The scare the s*** out of me on snow, ha ha.
