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.
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
At 70K miles I went with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S4 tires. That was about 7,000 miles ago and they are by far the best tires I have had on this car.
The sportiest all-weather tires are probably the Michelin CrossClimate 2, Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady 2, and Pirelli WeatherActive.
Pilot Sport AS4
I did get caught out by black ice last week and skidded a bit but then also got caught out in a different place in my mums car which is on Cross Climates, doing about 20mph both times. Both times I luckily got away with it but black ice is black ice, Cross Climates may give a slightly better chance of getting it back after skidding but not enough to be worth it imo.
On my G80 M3, Michelins were lasting about 10-12k miles
On my X5M -- Michelins last 10k miles tops.
