Which all season tires are better for snow?
I'm looking to replace my run flats pretty soon with all season tires, currently I'm deciding between Continental's DWS 06, Michelin's Pilot Sport A/S 3+, and Michelin's Premier A/S. Where I'm at we get about 6"-12" of snow during our winter seasons so I'm looking for the best all season tires for winter driving, I don't have room at my place to get a set of dedicated winter tires so I have to resort to the convenience of all seasons. Does anyone have any experience with these tires or have a better recommendation?

I suggest calling Tire Rack to get their input, too.

DWS without a doubt. By far the best non-winter performance tire on the market. You give up some hot weather grip due to all the tread sipping, but they're killer in light snow.

Replaced by DWS-06 now - and just as awesome - run them on the wife's E84 in the summer.

I have both. My F23 was on DWS06 and is now on AS3+. F31 currently on DWS06. That's a better option for bad weather. The AS3+ is better when it's nice.

I had DSW's on my E92 and it was good in wet and light snow but pretty loud. I'm now on AS3+ with my F22 and they are great on the dry and we'll see how they do in a couple of months when winter is in full effect. Road noise is noticeably lower than the DSW's so I'm liking it so far.

I ran the DWS on my 135 for a long time. They are great tires. I replaced the pirelli all seasons on my m240 with them also. Really great tires.
