The Altimax has had good reviews here. Seem like a good value, but I haven't driven them.
I have Bridgestone RE960AS Pole Positions in 205/55 x 16 on my 9000 and I'd put them on the '99 9-3SE my #2 daughter drives without a second thought.
Tire Rack rates these as "extreme high performance all seasons" and I've had them about 5,000 miles. They are great in the wet, and have fine grip in the dry with a very predictable breakaway in both wet and dry conditions. I had them on the car at an advanced driving skills class with wet skid pads, figure-eights and braking drills, and also on a road racing course in the dry. Good tire, IMHO.
They are supposedly OK in light snow, and my guess by looking at treads and siping is that they would be OK in a couple inches of the white stuff.
