I really like the Michelin x-ice tires, they are on the quieter side for winters I've had on the dry and great in the snow, but noise comes with that added traction anyway you do it.

Pros: quieter side, great in snow
Cons: noise with added traction

I have the Pilot A/S 3+ on my A5. Love them. Had them on my Golf R too. I'm generally a diehard Michelin tire guy, but the improvement of the DWS06+ over the Pilot Sport AS4 might make me switch were I need tires today.

Pros: love them
Vehicle: Audi A5

I went with the AS3+ because of the good wet braking and wet grip over the competition. It could be just me but Goodyear tires seem to wander sideways on the highway a lot. I notice I have to pay more attention to keep the vehicle centered in the lane.

Pros: good wet braking, good wet grip
Cons: wanders sideways on highway

I run grand-touring summers (H-rated Michelin Energy, used on the base Mini) on my Yaris year-'round here (Texas) and they are great, only getting a little scrabbly in sub-freezing temperatures. The summer Energy Saver (not the A/S) is the best all around tire I have ever had. Smooth, quiet, good steering response, excellent braking, tons of grip. If you slam on the brakes, it just STOPS without a bunch of scratching around and ABS intervention.

Pros: smooth, quiet, good steering, excellent braking, tons of grip
Cons: scrabbly in sub-freezing

Michelin X Ice Snow for winter tires on my VW. Improved grip and stopping distance below 7C compared to all weather tires, even when there is no snow or ice.

Pros: improved grip, stopping distance
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I received my winter set today. Since we only get a handful of actual snow days a season and most of it cleaned within hours, I went with a "performance winter" set, the Michelins pilot alpine 5.

Pros: performance winter set

Cons: 5 years old

I swear, this is the worst tire I have ever encountered in my entire life. Sure it rides smooth and soft, and makes almost no noise whatsoever, but is SUCKS as a tire! The tire gives up traction all the time. It totally destroys my confidence when driving my 2003 GTI 1.8T Sport.

Pros: rides smooth, makes no noise
Cons: gives up traction
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 20000 km
