Tires MICHELIN or YOKOHAMA
Personally I'm currently rolling with Michelin EcoSomethingsomething. Also Continental and Nokian are quite premium brands.
I went with the michelin defender ltx m/s on my 2016 with 22" rims. Been very satisfied so far.
The CrossClimate2 are excellent all-season tires. In fact, putting their all-weather capability aside, they're simply excellent even as far as 3-season tires go. So think of them as premium 3-season tires with extra winter capability.
I have recently installed michelin cross climate 2 and I am very happy with them. It is well worth the investment.
Personally I have Michelin crossclimate+ on my prius (they don't have crossclimate 2 in my size) and love them.
Michelin. Always Michelin.
The only time I've ever hydroplaned was on Goodyears.
I'm still running the geolandars on my wilderness. So far I love them no issues at all. Wprked great in the snow this winter and so far so good running them aired down on fire roads and some riverbeds etc. Not to mention quiet and smooth on road
With only a few hundred miles on them my experience has been very good with the Yokohama Advans. They are very nimble and have almost instant feedback when cornering, a big plus for me. Fairly quiet at highway speeds, and only slightly harsh.
I'm currently running Michelin Premieres on my Jetta. They are great tires, especially in the wet, but don't get near the longevity that they claim. I've put TrueContacts on our old Forester, and was very happy with them. I've also had General Altimax HP's on the Jetta (same category tire), and was happy with those as well. Generals are a great budget tire. They were very quiet, and I'll echo the comment that they feel squirmy at first until all the casing oil gets out of them.
I had a set of Michelin hydroedge on my Mustang, they were awful. No traction in any condition, and dry-rotted similar to shown above, but not quite as bad. And only about 4 years old.
