For comparison, the tires I use on my bike are Michelin Road 5, which seem to be in sale right now for $180 in my size and last around 8k miles
Original Falkens was not a fan of and car doesn't really see offroad minus some local dirt roads. AS3+ are a great 3 season tire, passable if you live somewhere with light winters but run dedicated snows late Nov-early Apr depending on the year.
I put the Premieres on my wife's Corolla and they are really amazing in the wet. We took it up Sandia Peak in Albuquerque a few weeks ago to catch the sunset, then it started raining on the way down. I tried to get it to understeer on some of the switchbacks just to see how much grip was left and couldn't get it to slide. They are not super sporty/firm and the steering response is a little slow in the H-rated version but overall I have been really happy with them.
The current tires are Michelin Premier A/S's. They are a nice tire, quiet, grippy and pricey.

I got the Michelin Defenders (stock 17\"). Definitely feel better than the Pirelli Scorpion Verdes that came with the car IMO. Tig is quiet and smooth, handles potholes very well, even makes my dirt road seem very smooth and quiet. Rain puddles like they aren't even there. Snow like a champ. Drove in a monster snowstorm this past winter, cars were off the road left and right, plows just couldn't keep up with it... Tig was driving like a tank, non-issue. Summer driving has been fun too!
I was on coilovers for quite a long time and wanted to let everyone know that they cars will eat through rear tires rather quickly once lowered. After the coils were installed I had a proper alignment done ASAP, and noticed that in under 9,000 miles of 97% highway driving my Michelin Pilot Super Sports were just about bald from the inner tread block outward.
