In all seriousness, I had Michelin Pilot PA3s on my STi and it worked wonders. Not sure how it'll be in a RWD car, but probably going to get the same tires again (except in 17s now)

Yeah, I have Michelin Pilot Alpin PA3's on my Eclipse GSX and my dad's Evo X MR for winter. They are very good all around tires but the only problem is that they flex a lot more and don't have as much grip when warm/hot.
But I would definitely recommend winter tires for rear wheel drive. All seasons just don't cut it for snow in my opinion. But if you live somewhere that just gets really cold but rarely sees snow, you may be OK with all seasons.
This is a dilemma for me too. At the moment, I plan to just keep my Eclipse GSX with the winter tires for snow days. But it may be too much of a hassle to keep two cars around like that. So if I sell my Eclipse, I would buy some nice wheels and put some Pilot Super Sports on them and then put some Pilot Alpins on the stock wheels for winters. That would cost like $2500 though...
Oh well, I have about a year to think about it.
