H, V or W?
Select the one with the highest UTQG number if lifespan is your concern.

Continental DWS06 or Generals GMAX AS07 are IMO the best value. I have experience with both and would buy them again if I had a vehicle that needed that type of tire.

 

[benjamming]

235/45-17 or 245/40-18 or something else?

Are you looking for more all seasons? Does snow matter to you at all?
Are you looking for longevity over performance?
Do you prioritize wet performance or do you live in a dessert?
Ride/comfort/noise/track performance/cost or what is order of priorities for this next set?

Best tire per dolllar spent - General gmax as-07

Good all season traction is important. I live in Missouri. I like good rain traction and reasonably decent snow traction. We don't typically see a ton of snow but I do definitely care about decent all season traction. Low noise is good. Don't care much about price. I don't track the car. I'd like decent longevity but performance is important as well. I'd like a well rounded tire good for all seasons and reasonable road manners.

I've had 2 and 3.

The Yokohama Advans (I've had these twice) were excellent in dry, rain, and snow, up to about 30k-35k. Even with a fairly decent bit of tread left, after that point they started going downhill pretty quick, especially in snow. They rode great and never had any vibration issues with either set.

I currently have a set of the DSW06's. I have about 30k miles on them now and they are excellent in both dry and wet weather. I had a tiny bit of vibration on at least one of them when they were new, but after a couple thousand miles it mostly went away. I dont think they are as outstanding as some have made them out to be here and elsewhere, but for an all season, so far I'm very happy with them. Have only used them in snow once, and only for a few miles, so I cant really say how good they are for that. I wouldnt hesitate to get another set. But again, I dont really have any real snow experience with them.

 

[benjamming]

Toyo Celsius II would be my choice I think.

 

[CKN]

The tread wear rating on some of those are very low. They are going to wear fast as well.

 

[cheesepuffs2]

I would go Conti from this crop of options. Haven't had them, but the people that run them seem to have nothing but good things to say.

 

[DuckRyder]

PSAS4 is GOAT all season.

 

[TheBig2003]

Phenomenal experience with the Kumho Ecsta PA51 in 225/55/17 on Kona AWD. Wear well, quiet and confident in dry and wet weather. No experience with slush, snow or ice, as they are a summer only. Outfit my vehicles entirely with Kumho rubber. [Not sponsored by or invested in Kumho]

The best tire of what you've listed is the Pirelli. You should look at the test video the Tire Rack did on it against other tires.

 

[Cujet]

I'd choose #1, all day long. I have P0's on my Jag and quite simply, they are not great tires.

If you go for Michelin, check out Costco. Michelin PS4's for the WRX with 17"s are 216.99 and the 18"s are 227.99. No charge mount and balance but add any state tire fees and sales tax depending where you live.
