I put the Quatrac Pro tires on our Model Y about 8,000 miles ago and have been very happy with them. No noticeable difference in road noise, basically no efficiency difference, but much better grip in wet and slick conditions.
I have Vrederstein hitrac all season on my sienna, used it for 8k miles, so far so good. I do notice my mpg is lower by 1-2mpg though.
I have the Winter Tech Pro's on Model 3 AWD and they have been great. They are aimed at occasional snow and ice with emphasis on excellent performance on slushy, wet roads. Had them in an ID snow storm of about 8" that shutdown I-84 and they were great. Not as good as Xice on pure ice and snow but better on the resulting slush and wet. Quieter than Xice or the OEM Primacies on the car.
I drive a 2015 Fit with Avid Ascend GT tires. It can handle the midwest snow just fine. My last set of 4 lasted me a little over 36k miles / 4.5 years with some poor road conditions in the city and lots of highway driving.
I have a set of Quatrac Pros on my car. Just passed 43k miles on them. I have nothing but positive experiences with these tires.
I have Yokohama Avid Ascend GTs on my 15. I have 195/55R16s and I don't want to go any wider than that.
My experience with them has been very positive. They have more than enough lateral grip for autocross and tearing up back roads, but are still solid feeling in the frequent rainstorms of the east coast. And while we don't get that much snow where I am, it handles that well enough as well.
My avid ascends have been great for the last couple runs. I am at 225k miles almost. Had three pair. Only complaint is that I didn't get very near the advertised warranty mileage. More like 50k per set.
For Winter tyres, in terms of noise and harshness, the Vredestein Wintrac Pro and Hankook Winter i*cept Evo³ are trading blows with each other. I noticed, that the Hankook is noisier on some surfaces, while the Vredestein is on others. Same with bumps. Neither is crashy though or loud. The noise they make it is also a low tone, so not disturbing.
I had Quatrac Pros on my last car. (2014 Mazda 6 Touring). They were quiet and rode nice, but I was underwhelmed by their snow performance.
Yokohama sucks. There's a reason a lot of cars come with them. Cheap. Don't last.
