TIRES FOR G37x Sedan - Michelin Pilot OR Goodyear Eagle?

I've used the Goodyear Eagle Sport on another car and it was great. Def improved handling and road grip

Never used the Pilot A/S 3 before so need some input on how they drive especially in MN - Dry, Wet and Snow/Ice()

I am coming from a Super Summer tire (Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position - near top of the line) and transitioned to a Michelin Pilot All Season-3 on my g37sport. The tires are a little noisier, they grip less and have a little more sidewall flex.

But, and this is the biggie, I can drive in weather under 35 degrees and hit some snow too. The tires aren't bad...for me it's just an adjustment because i moved from a max summer to a ultra-high performance all season. The two are leagues apart in dry road conditions. And I knew it, but I couldn't afford $5k 3-piece rims and another set of tires on top of that. So I purchased the best set of tires I could find, the Michelin Pilot AS-3.

I've had the AS-3 and they are not that great at all in the snow. Probably a tire I wouldn't want to drive through a MN winter. What size are you using, maybe there's something else I can find.

Goodyear RS-As, aren't real tires, they may look like real tires since they're rubber & black, but that's about it

Conti Extreme Contact DWS 06 get pretty solid reviews too

Look into the BFG Sport Comp2 A/S as well as mentioned the DWS 06. The BFGs are getting pretty solid reviews and aren't too badly priced either....
