If you deal with snow and don't want dedicated snow tires the CrossClimate2 is a great choice. I put them on last month and took a slight range hit but they have done great in a couple storms as well as longer trips to warmer climates.
I have those Pirellis and have been very happy with them.
I put a little over 50K on my Dunlops before replacing them a few weeks back and got Pirelli Scorpion AS/Plus 3. I do a lot of long-distance driving though, so maintaining range was important to me.
They really are amazing tires.
I have the cc2s on my highlander and camry. They get about 45k miles on them. I have driven them on gravel and grass fields. Where they excel in my opinion is when you hit a deep puddle unexpectedly at high speeds. You don't lose control. Also, very good on slushy/icey roads and in the rain.
I have the Scorpions and love them. I choose them because of the lower ride noise and think they look nicer on the car than the CC2s.
I do have CC2. Not to be overlooked--CC2 are also very good in the rain, not just snow. That may be of value in Seattle. excels in the rain, offering excellent wet traction, impressive hydroplaning resistance, and significantly shorter wet braking distances, even stopping shorter than competitors when worn
I swapped out my first set of Pirelli A/T at 22k miles because the tire noise was driving me insane. They still had tread left and probably would have lasted to 30k but I was so sick of the tire noise, which got very loud around 15k.
We are on the original launch edition pirellis on our R1S (20” wheels) and I can’t stand the noise either.
when you put all seasons on it i.e. Michelin CrossClimate, you will feel weird vibrations when driving above 60 miles.
