Tires BFGoodrich or GENERAL TIRE
I've been happy with General Altimax RT43 tires on my previous cars, good balance of quality and price for an all around tire.
I've been running general g max as-05s and been pleasantly surprised with their performance. Nothing close to the 200 treadwear summers I've run, but decent for an all season.
I have put General Altimax tires on my older hatchback and think they're pretty good.
Nokian (any of their winters), Blizzaks (any of their winters), michelin x-ice or General Artic winter tires are the 4 brands that I stick to for winter tires. Nokian is hands down the best, Blizzaks and Michelin are a real close 2nd and 3rd and the generals are a solid budget tire that I used to run on my 240sx in ottawa way back in day. (I currently run General Grabbers on my pickup and they are better than the bfgoodrich that are nearly 100$ more a tire).
I currently have General Altimax Arctic, studded, on my 2013. So far they have been great, but we will see how they go in deeper snow.

These tires should be perfect. They provide a VERY surprising amount of grip on dry and wet roads for all season tires. I even run these tires throughout the east coast winter and they handle very well in snow and storms for all season tires.
Only cons I noticed with these tires is that they are bit more noisy and I noticed the slightest drop in mpg after putting these tires on. Tread life is bit lower than average since they are ultra high performance all season tires. I've put about 15,000 miles on them, I can probably get about another 15,000 out of them.
FYI. The K02's are great. They are however sensitive to tire pressures. I always recommend you chalk test these particular models! I am running 38psi up front and 35 in the rear. They can get very noisy if underinflated. I used them as all seasons for the year and they did extremely well in most conditions with the exception of hard packed slushy roads - just not enough grip!
I bought some BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport and have been very happy with them for a year now.
Personally I would get the KM3's myself. My current KO2's are good but did get stuck in mud several times.
In my experience bfgs never wear well and ride roughly
