From experience with Gislaved on a WRX, Blizzak WS90 on another car, Blizzak DMV2 on a large diesel SUV, and Viking Contact 7s on a “regular SUV” and a parent’s older car, my personal favourite are the continental VC7s for all around winter.
I ride similar conditions. Went from a MaxGrip DHF to a Kryptotal. Really happy with the Conti’s
In my experience, which has been all heavier “horsepower” cars in the 3400-3800lb range, the best all seasons were Continental Extreme Contact DWS06. No chunking, but they do feather at the edges.
I've got Continental Viking Contact 7's on my AWD M3 and they're also fantastic.
I currently have Continental CrossContact XL 20 in. tires on my 2020 Buick Enclave. These are OEM tires that I was skeptical of since I usually prefer Michelin tires. These Continental tires are rated at 60K miles but currently have 63,000 miles on them and don't need to be replaced yet. They are quiet and grip well.
I haven't tried the Vittoria N.EXT, but I've ridden the GP5000 tubeless since they released around 6 years ago. My wife has been on the inner tube version. Great tyre, amazing grip, even in the wet, and very fast. I've also never had a flat. The only thing is they don't last super long - I reckon about 3-5000 km depending on your weight.
Hankook Ventus S1 evo3. Will not feel bad about using them for autox or track. As I picked up the cars after snow hit the ground, I took delivery with Conti VikingContact 7, which are pretty quiet.
Continental (CC series) Best mid range tyre. Very quiet. Still using it for 1 month, so far so good.
The Advan wheels on my miata came with dws06+. Was really happy with the performance but what annoyed me so much about them was the tapered profile and narrow tread. Wet performance wasn't a concern for that car so I replaced them with the firehawks in the same size. The tread is almost an inch wider and they dont look stretched on the wheels.
Very durable but the only crashes I've had in the wet have been with them fitted. Personally won't be using them anymore.
