The Pirellis are an excellent tire . Great in the rain and snow plus handle very well in all weather.
Yes, I had the Hankook New Englander 205/55R16H for about 4 years on my Mazda 5, and they had just over 60k miles on them. I liked them enough to buy the same thing again. I'm in Massachusetts and they feel great in all kinds of New England weather. I do a lot of driving to work including highway and city. They are grippy in rain, snow, sleet and every combination even at highway speeds. I did get a bulge in the sidewall and kept driving them the last 5-10k or so, even though I knew better. (Don't do this even though it never popped on me.) There was still a little wear left on them, but you have to replace a tire with a bulged sidewall, so I got all 4.
Conti ExtremeContacts are noisy. I have them on my Mazda5. The tires are especially loud when they are cold and moving at low speed. They feel like good tires and seem to wear well, but the noise factor alone makes me want to not keep them for too long.
The problem with LRR tires is they suck at doing the things you need a tire to do, like braking and cornering. I once put a set of Bridgestone Ecopias on a Mazda5... A FWD minivan with 153 Horsepower should not be able to spin the tires all the way through 1st and 2nd gears taking off from a stop sign.
I just replaced the OEM tires on my 2019 @ 44k miles. The Toyos would have never gotten me through the first snow.
