New All Season Tires 2014 GL450 275/55R19?
Analysis paralysis...need some thoughts please...what are your thoughts on new tires in 275/55R19 for a 2014 GL450? The Continental ExtremeContact DSW06 seems to get high regards, but they don't come in this size. What about:
Continental 4x4Contact?
Michelin Premier LTX?
Pirelli Scorpion All Season?
Firestone Destination LE2?
Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season Plus?
EDIT: I should add, I live in Connecticut and frequent Vermont quite often in the winter to ski...

I hated the pirelli scorpions.
I love the pirelli scorpion verde all seasons plus and run them now. V rated was very important for me and they have good ride quality.
The continentals are okaaay...I have an extra one in the garage from the previous set...but they're really soft and Wear quickly. Again only h rated.
Definitely no no on firestone.
Michelin premier ltx are quite popular but they're soft so they will wear out in 20-30k miles.

I visit vt often too...and would highly recommend a dedicated winter set.
I can't really provide much feedback on winter performance on the tires mentioned. Wet tire performance is great though.

Not sure I want to do winter tires. Have lived in CT all of my life and haven't done dedicated snows yet.
Think I am down to:
Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season Plus
Toyo Celsius CUV
Michelin Premiere LTX
The Toyo Celsius CUVs have intrigued me. Anyone have first hand experiences with them?

Ended up getting Toyo Celsius CUVs installed this morning...just in time for the first real snowfall in CT this season! Tires look great, got great reviews, and some friends also recommended them...we'll see!

None of the above. Go with Toyo Celsius CUV, especially if you drive your truck in the winter. They make that size for your truck and are "all weather" tires, meaning they do great in snow, ice, and in the summer and come with a 60k warranty. They are also cheaper than most of the tires on that list.
