Default best all season tires for 2004 GLI?

I live outside of chicago and winter is in full swing here. im looking for a good all season tire which has good wet and dry traction and tread wear. im torn between a few different ones.

Continental extreme contact DWS

Pirelli P Zero Nero

Yokohama AVID ENVigor

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric

Please let me know your opinions on these tires, and any other ones i did not list but have a good reputation.

I run mastercraft touring lsr on my mk4 and mk5. Great tires.
.
I get about 2 years out of a set. Probably could get more if I rotated them more often.

Check out sites like discounttiredirect.com and read the reviews they have. They can be really helpful. It's where I got my all seasons from(General G-Max AS03's)

i originally had pirelli p zero neros. too expensive to replace. looked at discount tire direct, and other sites. good prices. i ended up going to firestone and getting some all seasons from them, their own brand. they are primewell pz 900 or something like that. so far i am pleased with them. they were 400 bucks mounted and balanced. best part is, the come with a 40,000 mile warranty.
