Michelin does have all season Pilot Sport tires. I have these on my A4 Quattro and they are amazing, as were the previous versions I had before. I had plenty of tread on the previous tires with 35k miles, but they were replaced because of a hole in a sidewall. The grip is excellent in dry, rain, and cold weather and they have little road noise.
I just had mine upgraded from OE to Michelin Crossclimate2 with the $80 Michelin discount. So far so good.
The Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady2 won Tire Rack's first place overall rating last year. The weaknesses of this tire are noise and fuel economy, and even in those areas, their performance is above average. Excellent heat/cold, wet/dry/snow performances on track and on skid pad testing.
Another option is to run four-season tires like the Michelin CrossClimate 2. Those are not as good as dedicated winters, but do have the mountain/snowflake symbol and can be left on year 'round. My daughter in AA takes that approach and seems happy with the compromise.
I am running Michelin crossclimates year round.
Those ain't snow tires. Get some Michelin ice x 3
The Rav4 with these tires did a fantastic job on snowy interstate, and through snow-covered Berkshire mountain uppy/downy roads with multiple inches of snow on them. My biggest complaint is the sensor warnings stopping me from being able to monitor AWD activity on the dash. Otherwise no complaints and significantly increased confidence in inclement winter weather.
The Goodyears don't last long at UTQG of 580. But at least they are cheap at under $300 each.
The Michelin Primacy MXM4 with the T0/T1 designator are easily some of the worst (premium) tires I've ever used. I was so glad to get worse range to not have howling in my cabin after 5-10k miles on them.
I thought it was something weird I did to make these so bad, but had the same issue on two separate Model 3s, and moving to the Pirelli EV tires fixed it.
Tesla Tires suck, go for another option. Michelin X Ice Snow for Winter, Goodyear ElectricDrive2 for Summer.
