Default Replacement Tires.... 2010 V6 Premium

I have BFGoodrich P215 R17's on the car now. They are starting to crack and I will need to replace them. What do you guys recommend? The car is a daily driver and I live in Ohio... winters can be ugly. I would like a great all around tire that allows me to enjoy the drive too. I did a search but I did not see too much on it that pertained to mine since the rims are larger.

To begin with, I'd be having a friendly but serious chat with the dealership as to why my 1 y/o tires were dry-rotting.

Secondly, all-season tires are a trade-off and very few do much less than suck in the winter. I had spent almost 38 years driving in PA and Chicago winters and a trade-off is no way to protect yourself and your prized vehicle. Get yourself a set of dedicated winter wheels/tires plus about 200lbs of weight for the trunk.

As far as replacement tires, the choices are endless. I really like the info provided in the survey data on sites such as tirerack.com, taken for what they're worth, of course.
