What tyres for a Subaru Forester?

Which tyres do you recommend for a Forester? I had to have my wheels aligned after 8500 miles (my fault, said Subaru, as they would have checked before leaving the factory) So the wear on the outside will mean I will have to replace sooner than expected.

Very useful off-road yet an enjoyable car-like drive on tarmac. Looks and feels classier than its predecessor. Well built. Owners rate it.
