Yup. The Kumho ASX (in 205/45-16) is one of the best, if you have to get all-seasons (because you need to use them in winter snow as well as the rest of the year) and you're willing to accept the compromise in performance that entails. The BFGoodrich g-Force Super Sport A/S is also very good and right now the Tire Rack has them on special in 205/45-16.

I just put the BF Goodrich g-Force SS A/S on mine. I didn't like spending so much on tires so often.

The BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW is a summer tire, not an all-season tire. It may be okay for your needs, but not for use in snow.

Hell even the G-force Sports that I have been on are no good in the snow. It even says on the site that neither of those tires should be driven in near freezing temps, snow, or ice.

Yup. That's pretty much true of all summer tires.

BFGoodrich makes a bunch of all-season tires, too, the best of which are the BFGoodrich g-Force Super Sport A/S (mentioned above) and the BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDWS. The Kumho Ecsta ASX is good too!
