Been driving a '04 XC70 since last spring, and love the car. Put Blizacks on all 4 corners for the winter and can not believe the sure footedness over my old 740 wagon. With spring coming (yes, it will be coming here in upstate NY), I need to get new tires for the summer. I noticed on Tirerack.com there is a very limited selection of high performance all season tires. I was mostly seeing touring type tires. I understand a XC70 is not going to handle like a Porsch or a smaller Volvo, (sits too high, weights too much, boarderline SUV, etc.). However, I still would like tires that have top notch wet/dry traction, at least H speed rated, reasonably quiet, etc.
What tires have other XC70 owners used that worked really well?
Thanks,
