With your weather, I would say GSD3's.

In Car and Driver's test, it was close to be the best in dry weather and completely blew the competition away in wet weather.

No need to worry about the 555R's and RII's in the rain. They stick great. Once the tread wears down you have to be aware of puddles just like any other tire as hydroplaning can occur. Still, even a bald 555R can stick like glue on a wet street. Very predictable as well. I can't comment on the extreme cold as I'm in the South.

just got the nitto 555 dr for my rear. they handle good for my dd camaro. they hook great also. havent had them in the rain yet but ive heard they do pretty fine? but if ur in snow n all i would choose something thats made for that. or just consider of changing tires when it comes to the snow season. i live in the bay area cali so we dont got to worry about that but i wouldnt drive to tahoe in the winter with those tires? would def change them

but id say go with nitto
