Default tyres for all year

My current tyres, eagle F1's are coming to the end of their life.To be honest they have been really good in most conditions,except the really bad snow we had in northern France this winter.So I'am looking to replace them,looking for a tyre for all year and wondered if anybody thought any tyre could do better.Thanks.

I am in the same predicament, I have got some Hankook V12s and find them very good,
However I have just got another set of rims and I think I am going to give the Goodyear F1 asemetic 2 s a try as they have very good reports.

Just got a new set of Goodyear F1 asemetic 2 s to replace the older f1s which I really liked, the new one seem very good so far but not done that many miles yet.i would think the best thing is to get a winter set.

I was happy with the V12s on the ring trip, I have P Zeros on the Spec B and they have really impressed me.

P Zeros are very good I ve had 2 sets, (WR1s had them fitted from the factory)

but when you push them they squeal like a pig and tend to get very hot especially towards the end of a lap of the ring when you are 4 up

As an all round tyre they are good.
