Best tire I have owned for all-around performance. I had Pilot Sports before, and obviously in dry and wet warm temperatures they are superior, but what you give up with the Cross-Climates is not enough to worry about. The big bonus is winter driving is a breeze. These puppies are like snow tires you can use year-round. You only need one set of tires. Summer performance is fine. If you want to track your car, get Pilot Sports and a set of winters. If you drive on the street, buy these. I was expecting them to be really noisy, but they are fine.
(Other tires I have used: Michelin Defender, Michelin X, Michelin X-Ice, Nokian winters, Firehawk Police Pursuit (summer and winter), BF Goodrich, Goodyear (including Police RSA), Hankook, Sears Michelin all-season, Michelin Pilot Sport, Michelin Truck tires).
So, i have a bit of experience with tires.
I won't buy anything else.
