The real question is how do all weather tires perform after one or two full years of use. That means after they have been used well through the scorching summer heat and freezing winter cold. How do those thermal stress cycles affect the performace of such tyres. I had read some comments on the Internet that such temperature stresses (especially summer heat) typically cause the significant long term degradation of their performance, but I am not convinced that is true yet. Any info from you or others?
We have the Nokian WRG4, now on their 3rd year and there are no noticeable differences in handling the various conditions. I know people with Michelin crossclimate 2's who are doing fine also.
The all-seasons/weather tyres are worse than the dedicated summer (UUHP, UHP) tyres in the summer and worse than the dedicated winter tyres in the winter. For example (given you are sponsored by Conti), do you know any all-seasons/weather tyres better than Continental WinterContact 870P in the winter? Ofc, the answer is no.
