I would say stick with Michelin’s. Best combination of grip, comfort, road noise and tread wear. Based on experience Pirellis and Contis tend to wear out faster (P Zeros), Bridgestone is so so.
I ordered the same style rims in satin black 18” on T Sportline last week w/ Michelin X-Ice Snow.
I've had these for about 16,000 miles. 2 Wisconsin Winters and a summer. I am still extremely happy with them. OP nailed the Winter/wet portion. To add- whether warm or cold out, they perform more like true summer tires on dry pavement. I highly recommend them.
I just put the CC2’s on my 18 GSW 4motion. I couldn’t be more pleased! Performance on wet road- exceptional. Snow- not quite as good as a dedicated snow tire, but damn close. I’ve rallied up the canyon to Alta on snow packed days, not once did they get squirrelly.
I've had experience with both and while both are absolutely fantastic the Michelin tires felt like they warmed up a few minutes faster and handled the rain a bit better.
I put Michelin Pilot Sport A/S's on my '18 S4, and they were decent at everything and snow tested as competent, for a high performance a/s tire - but very expensive, and overkill for stock Passat, IMHO.
I've been a big fan of my Michelin Premier All Seasons
Most consistent tire when it comes to not being out of round and balancing with the least amount of weight - Michelin. Thus they always ride excellent right out of the box and all the way until they are wore out.
Michelin premieres perform great in the snow, about as good as winter tires (reviews on tirerack) Turned my prius into a beast in the snow (for a prius).
Audis run on Continental Winter Contacts, have had Nokians, Hankooks and Coopers. All worked well but the Coopers were noisiest of the bunch.
