Good tires for all conditions?

If I get 17's, what kind of tires would be good for driving year round? It does snow here (not too much, but enough), and I've heard the Paradas have great rain traction, how about in the snow? If not, anyone got any suggestions? Or is it just better to put back the stock rims with the stock tires and drive like that in the winter?

1955 is an unknown quantity at this point

if i am not mistakin,snow tires have the design of their own and they dont have too many width sizes to offer cus the wider tires dont make good traction on snow,hard to believe though.u can use rain tires in dry and wet condition but not much good for snow

i dont know anything about snow but i have falken 512s. these are new... all season tires with 30,000 mile tread wear warranty... even tho their all season, the tread doesnt look too badd. its also $10 cheap then their 451 or whatever the racing/low pro tires are. not sure how it puts up with snow tho
