Need suggestions for new tires

I live in California and occasionally drive up to Tahoe for snowboarding. I currently have Michelin Dimaris 19" on my 4.4. What are some good tires for year round driving around when it's dry and occasional trips up to Tahoe? Tahoe would be only once or twice a year. Any suggestions as to a brand or where to purchase them?

Toyo Proxes ST IIs. Great all season tires that work well in the snow.

I'm not completely positive if they make the right size for your rear tires though..

Michilin MXV4's. Great all season tire. Works well in snow, and very quiet on dry roads.

Neither Michelin's MXV4 nor Toyo Proxes ST2 come in the staggered 19 size.

Unfortunately, That doesn't come in staggered 19 either, which was what the OP wanted. There are only limited choices for staggered 19: Michelin Latitude, Pirelli Scorpion Zero Asimmetrico, Hankook Ventus, and Kuhmo Ecsta.
