I've run DWS and DWS06+ on multiple cars (MK4 jetta, GTI, 8P 3.2, RS4) and have friends with the same on other marques, over a period of at least 15 years. They are THE choice unless you want to spend more money on the Michelins. The only other option I'd consider is the Michelin CrossClimate, but these are touring tires, so you'll lose more of the dry performance of the DWS or AS/3, but have better "weather" performance, if that makes sense. I know a few folks with these, and they seem to like it, but they're appliance owners, not car enthusiasts.
I put the MICHELIN X-TOUR A/S 2 on the Crossturd and I've been happy with them. Quiet and handle rain well. Handling has remained the same or better than the Uniroyal Tiger Paws the dealer had put on there - probably not a big feat there.
I've had them on my 2019 for well over a year now, been very happy with them.
I have the CC1 and my inlaws have CC2 tires on our AWD wagons. Hands down some of the best riding tires I have had. Also the best wet traction, will see what miles I get from a set.
I put them on my 2018 ridgeline last fall. Have been great, were very good in the snow/ice last winter in MN.
Have been on my AS4s for 20K+ miles and very happy. They do ride a bit firmer but the wet/dry performance is great. I've never had anything but contempt for Pirelli products. The GTI factory all-seasons were bad and the PZ4 summers I replaced them with were also bad.
Hankook ion evo on my 2022 LR. Love em. Don’t care about handling, the car still drives like a go cart in my book. Quiet and efficient tire
I bought Hankook evo for the Lexus and it was very smooth, before I changed the car.
All seasons are deceptive. Not *bad* in the snow but you’ll see on most of them “light powder” conditions - meaning anything other than a quick flurry will undermine performance. Get these + snow tires and swap during the winter or get a better tire rated for snow like Michelin Crossclimates or Nokian WR G4s.
Wasn't my experience at all. About six months ago I replaced the OEM Geolanders on my 2018 Crosstrek with CrossClimate 2 tires. By the time drove 15 minutes home I knew that there I didn't like what I was experiencing with the CrossClimates. They were noisier, jittery, mushy and didn't track like the Geolanders. I wrote it off as being new. They did an alignment and wheel balance during installation. I am not an aggressive driver but the interstate on ramp that I use all the time I could enter at 50mph and stay at 50. I had to brake use the Michelins. Also I lost 3 mpg compared to the Geolanders.
