RS11's are amazing tires, used them before going to slicks. For road use the don't last that long though.
There's also the Bridgestone WeatherPeak, which is priced like the Michelin CrossClimate, but it seems like it has better snow and ice traction.
I like Bridgestone Potenza RE003. Great dry grip and excellent wet grip.
RE71r - on all four corners of my S6. Really sticky and ride well.
After a massive blowout on 422 here in PA a few months back, and having HUGE bubbles in the sidewalls of two other tires and a large gash (no idea where this came from) of the spare that went on, I replaced all four with a set of Bridgestone RE980 AS+'s. What a difference in the way the car rides and grips. You can feel the Bridgestone's handle the bumps SO much better than the stock Conti's and there's much more grip.
I lived in Boston for a while and i used blizzak tires. They worked well.
Nankang CRS hands down. The only good thing I’ve ever heard about Toyos in the past decade is that they come in a lot of sizes.
You should expect a slightly worse gas mileage, but not by much. In exchange you're getting excellent traction in the snow and rain though, so definitely a good choice for a tire.
I have Nakang NS2 in the front of my Alfa Romeo Brera. The Brera demands a lof of from front tires, they wear pretty well and have pretty decent grip (not great).
The thing is, you may like or not like, they have a soft construction. So you are more on the confortable side, but roll a bit more on corners and give you less steering feedback than a better tire like Michelin PSS.
Friends have run these, they are outright terrible in all respects.
