Best is the Michelin Pilot Sport summers swapped with Pilot Alpins, which I’ve also done. But, I am over the twice-a-year swap, and really don’t need it down here.

I put the DWS on the e46 wagon once upon a time, and I liked them, too. Just prefer the harder-edged Michelins on my primary car.

And not having to worry too much about driving around on the 20-degree days with a chance of precip is, well, priceless.

I am Ok with a lot more compromises for practical reasons as I get older. Which is how I ended up with an AWD car with an automatic on all seasons. LOL. Not to mention the big-toothed grille and hatchback.

I’ll leave it to my son to buy the M2 equivalent in his future. He has already been bitten by the bug.
Like you, I've been a huge fan of Michelin PS A/S, and have had great luck with them. I'm still on the fence as to whether or not to try the DWS, with price the only determining factor.

I'm probably like 51% DWS/49% PS as of now, LOL.

I've changed the tires of our Sienna recently from Michelin Primacy Tour A/S to Pirelli Scorpion A/S Plus 3. So far, I like them but haven't really tested them out in the rain or snow. Tire Rack has had good reviews, and Danica Patrick approved of them as well in a YouTube video.

Hey, if it's good enough for Danica, it's good enough for me.
