I am now on a set of continental for the winter. (And they run better than the all season khumo, go figure), but I'll look for those hankook next spring!
I replaced with Pirelli P7's. They are great, makes a huge difference in ride quality.
And they fit great, just like hawkbyte and Firebyte said they would
I live in the northeast and have used the dws and the pilot sports over the years. It’s been rather mild here lately the last few years but I never had a problem with getting around in either of those tires.
I just got the Continental DWS06 plus on my M3P and I am surprised how good they are compared to the summer Pirellis that came on it. Very reasonably priced too.
I think Continental VikingContact 8 would be on par with R5s when it comes to function.
I was deciding between these same tires and I went with the dws06+ due to the fact I drive up to the mountains quite often. Have been more than impressed with their ability in every weather condition and will be getting a new set in the next couple of months.
You could definitely push the Michelin‘s harder and dry weather. They are also great in rain. But I live in Pennsylvania, so the DWS 06 are the ones for me. I don’t need to constantly be pushing my tires to the edge and with these, they definitely do have a little more give and a little more slip than the Michelin, but the amount of snow traction I get is light years ahead of the Michelin by far even though the Michelin are listed as an all season they are more of a three season tire.
I have them, I have a couple hundred miles on them and no issues. My experience however, keep them on pavement, I tried going over some light gravel to take a break and they slipped quite a bit.
I had P-Zeros but they were shocking in cold/damp weather, depends on your geography but if it’s going to drop below 5 degrees C, then don’t get them.
