Ah, you mean the P7000SS (SuperSport).  Yes they are "all-season".  I
have a set on an 850t.  They are terrible in winter.  They are also not
very sticky on the dry, and get noisy as they wear.  If you absolutely
had to have a Z-rated all-season for all-year use, I would go with the
Pilot XGT series.  They are very pricy though, I think you'd be better
off with some cheap summers (Kuhmo 712's, for ex), and some cheap
winters.

Just my opinion,
Erik

The P7000s are also all-season - I will have some winter driving but
last
year I had some Z rated Yokos that were OK in the snow (summer tires),
so
I figured the 730s could be up to snuff, and that the W & Z rated
all-seasons might be up to snuff performance-wise as well.
