Question New tires

Hi guys...I need some new tires for my 8, I am considering some all seasons because I live in Toronto and do not want to spend in 2 set of tires, so I am looking for maybe the best all season tires out there and some advices. I have checked the tirerack page and other reviews and I´ve come to these: BFGoodrich g-Force Super Sport A/S (26lbs), Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position (27lbs) and Toyo Proxes 4 (23lbs). Right now I´m rolling on some Michelin Pilot Sports which weight 23lbs

Looking for some lighter tires, as you can see the toyos are the lightest ones of this group...

Also any suggestion on what size should I get with stock rims, Will some wider tires affect accelaration?. Thanks

Goodyear Eagle F1 A/S imho. Great wet or dry or snow. Of course no A/S is as capable as a dedicated snow tire, but these are quite good.

I'd stay with 225x45x18 since all season.
