Tires Falken or Continental
No issues at all on DWS06+'s. Plowed through some untreated parking lots with ease.
When the GP 5000's came out, it was a first for me. I actually wrote to Conti to tell them how good they were.
I just bought these as well, have about 1,600 miles on them. So far slightly less efficient than the stock Continentals (expected), but a quieter more comfortable ride - which was my goal.
Now, I have vikingcontact8 tires which are also amazing.
I have continental dws06 plus all seasons and haven't had a hiccup. This car has treated me surprisingly well in the snow
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 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.
I had the AT3 and wanted to get the AT4 but I am seeing a lot of negative reviews on this tire. Everything from the weight to lack of control in wet conditions has made me look for other options. My only issue with the AT3 is it lasted me maybe 30k miles
