Tires... which kind!?

I'm probably gonna have to get new tires sooner or later. They're getting pretty worn out.

So I've gotten to the point of choosing...

Highway-all season?

Or All-Terrains?

It's very hard to choose, believe it or not. I was thinking of some highway all seasons because I can still go on gravel and they'd probably be better for FE, but I've gotten stuck in mud and slipped on too much snow that's not supposed to be slippery without trying too many times, and my brother is getting tired (no pun intended) of it and blaming it all on 2wd. I know that if the wheels wouldn't get caked full of mud/snow we wouldn't have this problem.

Plus, I drive everyday on cobble stone with potholes you geo guys and air-dam lovers would cringe and faint at from just looking at them. Ive also noticed that some A/T's have a higher pressure rating than H-A/S tires.

Most of you guys would instantly say that highway all season is a no brainer, but maybe some truck and jeepers might say different.

I don't know, but I'd like to have some form of opinion before choosing. tires can get pricey.
