Depends what you are looking for. I got Michelins for ride quality and reduced road noise and they do not disappoint.
The only all-weather (NOT all-season) tires I trust here are Michelin cross-climates.
I have a set of Michelins Cross Climates, which are all season tires highly rated for the snow, and I've never had any issues in the snow. I've bought about 5 or 6 sets on various vehicles ranging from Toyota, Subaru and most recently on my 2018 M3LR (2 different sets), 2023 MYLR and most recently my 2025 M3P (switch to 18s with cross climates).
Great for everyday driving and i have gotten 55k plus miles with mostly highway driving and tire rotation every 6k to 8k miles.
My RWD IS300 did great in the snow with Michelin X-Ice’s.
For instance on my pickup I run a Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 and it is way more then enough and can run all year (and get 85k miles on a set), but I do run a winter on my wife's car because her summer tire is just crap.
I have Bridgestone Dueler AT Ascents on my Ram Rebel and like them a lot.
I recommend the Bridgestone Blizzak. They are studless snow tires. Instead of medal studs, they embed a series of really firm rubber 'studs' into the softer rubber of the tire. They work just as well as metal studded tires, but don't chew up the road or make the annoying noise that the metal studs.
I've had Hakkas, X-Ice and Blizzaks.
Blizzaks seemed to degrade the worst of the bunch and performance fell off faster than the X-ice and hakkas.
We put a set of these on our 05 XC70 last year. 11K miles later they are down to 4/32 - 5/32. The tread wear is indeed terrible on these.
