Tires Continental or BRIDGESTONE
I have continental dws06 plus all seasons and haven't had a hiccup. This car has treated me surprisingly well in the snow
We have a '25 Sport and run Blizzaks on it and its been great the last two winters.
I can second the contis as being great in summer, handling >30 degrees Celsius with aplomb.
Of the four tires on your list, the Conti seems to me the most suitable for your conditions.
I have them on my XC60 and I like them very much.
I have used the Bridgestone Turanza Allseason 6 on a Mazda CX5 2.5 AWD for 2 years and 20.000 km. They are excellent during summer heat and torrential rain on highways and I have yet to fond any issue with them on ice and snow, although the latter was limited. They are still at 7 mm tread.
I recently put the Bridgestones on my Mazda6 and they feel great in cold and wet weather, quite good in snow for all seasons too, but I haven’t had a chance to try them in proper European summer heat. My previous car had cc2 that were excellent in the snow, average on wet, and quite bad for my liking on summer drives. They just felt soft and flexi above 30c.
I am a big sucker for GP5000 S TR, and run them in 32mm. Absolutely love it, and they work really well on hardback/light gravel too, speedy, grippy, and no punctures.
I went with the same tire and size with the Model X rims, up from the 19s. I'm seeing about a 9% range loss around town, but I'm also driving it a lot harder now that I have the traction. I do feel like I have a lot more camber in the rear, that I definitely need to take care of. Most surprisingly, I think the ride is so much better than the 19 Cont Rxs. Sound seems ok, but I think I got a bad tire or something because my front drivers side tire makes a lot of noise. I was hoping it would go away, but it seems to have gotten worse.
I live in NY, conti’s suck. Blew out so many that my dealership couldn’t get any more in stock and had the wheel and tire warranty.
The stock and subsequent 20" Conti Pro Contact sucked. I went thru so many tire hitting a smallish pothole at various speeds at on/off ramps, side streets, highways, turns, etc. I would get a bubble every time.
