And of course better tires - upgraded to Michelin Premiers for best suite of AS characteristics.
I bought Michelin PSS due to everyone online telling me to and HOLY SHIT. Best tires ever
Tires seem to be wearing fine. The ride is a lot like the A3 I replaced (18\" wheels on a Golf platform). I expect similar wear as my Audi.
Continental wintercontact si is damn good value for money and outperforms blizzaks. I use them on my rwd car and there great. Definitely recommend them.
If you don't need deep snow traction, go with Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4. I run them on my sports cars. Excellent cold weather and rain traction. Quiet. Good in light snow and slush.
Xice3 for me. Giant difference.
+1 to the Nokian's if you just need one tire. Personally, keep the stock tire and get some snows for winter use. Been using the Michelin X-Ice3's and they are fantastic and a hell a lot cheaper than the comparible Hakka R series.
When it's time to replace my all seasons, I will likely be going with Nokian WRG. I had older generation Conti DWS on my gti and while they were great, the snow traction was only on the first 10k miles of tread. I hear the current Continental DWS 06 are better.
I chose these tires because I put them on my 2016 Tucson last year and they are phenomenal.
I can only speak re: the PS2's. Had them on my S2000 for track duty. Unbelievable grip once their hot. Key point here. They're risky as daily drivers, and use caution about driving in the rain - it's like ice. If they're cold (like anytime their not warmed by a few yellow-laps), they are slick. Pardon if I didn't read all of your question, if you want the most adhesive track tire out there, go for it. I did use them as daily drivers, they were fine, but could bite you.
