Michelin Pilot AS/3 high performance all seasons
It will look better when I get the replacement CF lip on. Think I'll wait until spring for that
Also I would really like to get the calipers powder coated red.

I love them!
Had the Conti DWS before.
The A/S 3 are smoother and quieter than the Conti (although not quite as nice a ride as the PSS...lol).
Luke from tire rack said they would not be good in serious snow, but I wouldn't take a 550hp rwd car out in heavy snow
Added benefit is that I was told they would be less prone to pothole damage. My DWS popped frequently. Luke even mentioned Conti released a redesign to help with the issue because so many people were complaining. He still reccomended going with the Michelins.
There more expensive, but I am very happy I bite the bullet.
