I deal with the same thing down here in Texas. I can't afford to put new tires on every 6 months due to wear, and our winter weather is usually torrential rains, not snow.
I settled on Cooper Zeon RS3-G1's. AA traction, 500 Treadwear and excellent wet traction. A full set for my NISMO runs less than a grand, installed.
I sacrificed a bit on dry traction, compared to the OEM's, but I'm not racing the car, so it was a reasonable compromise.
