Depends on how "all season" you need them to be.

Do you get much snow where you live? If you will have to drive in snow very much, but know the roads will be cleared relatively soon after a storm, you still need a tire that's good in snow. Not all all-seasons are.
I disagree with Dag and like the Nokian WRs (I have the regular ones, not the performance version) and they are excellent in snow and rain, yet wear well on dry roads. Ride and handling seem fine at reasonable extra-legal speeds, and for an all-season they do well when pushed fairly hard on back roads, IMHO. I've had a set as my winter tire (I live in southern NH) for one winter and my daughter in western Maine has had them on her 9K all year 'round for 3+ years.
If you don't need to worry about snow, check out the Uniroyal Tiger Paw Touring. Never would have thought of them, but the local tire shop recommended them over the Michelin MXV and Bridgestone Serenity. 2500 miles later on my wife's 9-5 they are a decent tire. $535 all up all in for 4.
