All-year-round tyres

Hi all,
I'm looking for some decent, all-year-round tyres that will be mainly used for training. I've read a thread about puncture-proof tyres on the forum which gives a good idea as to the best puncture-proof tyres, but I'm also looking for grippy tyres that are good in the wet (although that doesn't mean I don't want tyres with some good puncture-protection). The Continental GP4 Seasons or the Gatorskins look like the best bet at the moment, but if anyone has any better suggestions, feel free to comment. Oh, also, I've a budget of £25-£30 per tyre.
Sorry in advance if there are any tyre threads before mine; the forum search doesn't seem to work too accurately.
Thanks in advance; any advice is really appreciated

Try again, I found 1455 threads in the Road section for "winter tyres".
A few recent ones which might help:

It depends on how tough a tyre you want, puncture resistance and best grip don't always go hand in hand. Mind you, no tyre will grip on diesel, wet leaves or ice. Alternatively, go easy around the cornersAspire not to have more, but to be more.0 -
This is a little bit embarrassing... :oops:
Thanks a lot for the links. Going easy around the corners is probably the best bet, a fair bit cheaper aswell0 -
Vittoria Pave - simply the best there is.0

I have been using vittoria paves for the last 3 years, really rate them.
In summer I use latex tubes in them and they are like good tubularsInsta: ATEnduranceCoaching

Ive raced on Contis for years and they feel as good in the wet as in the dry. I use the gator skins in the winter cant find one thing wrong with them. Fantastic!0
