Good at what, specifically?
Every thing is a tradeoff.... do you want it to handle better, stop shorter, last longer, not reduce your mileage? You can't have ALL of those but 2 or 3 would certainly be possible. Your profile says you live someplace with real winters- do you want one set to run all year? If so do you need to drive in legit heavy snow or not? If you're willing to run 2 sets for winter/summer the answers change again.

rolling, man. The last ones were not round...
Here is a very thorough chart rating many many aspects of tires:

Wow! Can’t believe I’ve never seen this before—truly an amazing and comprehensive collection of tire data extremely well presented. This is the end all be all answer to all tire queries....well done!
Looking for good all season
Live in Connecticut travel to Vermont a lot if it’s going to snow I will take a different vehicle just need something if I get caught in the snow all other vehicles have snows

I'd suggest the cross climate 2 then... it's competent in snow and offers very good performance all year- plus a 60,000 mile treadwear warranty.
(the Pilot Sport A/S 4 would be my recommendation if you wanted a little better rest-of-the-year but probably shouldn't be used beyond light snow- these are what I replaced my OEM tires with since living in NC if we ever get more than light snow everything's closed anyway so nothing to drive to)

That’s one incredible chart but sadly it does not include anything related to efficiency/range. That’s definitely a factor that I purchase tires based on and one of the reasons I’m leaning towards another set of MXM4s.
I'm so cheap, my main concern is long lasting and efficiency. I can out up with poor handling and stopping distance. =p
What about the goodyear max assurance line? I have 19"

Agree with remarks about efficiency. I think it would be a great metric to know cost/mile, taking into account durability of the tire, rolling resistance and cost of the tire itself. And icing on the cake would be factoring in warranty considerations. I bet many people will use this as a metric to decide what to buy.
It's either that or you may simply check out these tire and wheel packages instead. You no longer have to rely on complicated data and measurements to determine the correct replacement tire. Just check out the drop-down menu and you're all set to buy your spares.
