Advanta 245/30/22. Bought these as a recommendation from tire rack/my Boi and they are very nice compared to my Conti DWS 06+ that are on my back wheels currently. They don't break loose in the dry or wet but they are on the fronts only. I was really impressed, UNTIL they got sidewall bubbles in BOTH of them and the car was vibrating like crazy. (keep in mind that the load is under what they should be) and the car is lowered so there's that too. I'm not sure if Michelin or Conti would bubble but damn.

What is a High Performance tyre?
High Performance tyres sit between the sporty and touring worlds: more grip and steering precision than a touring tyre, more comfort and life than an ultra high performance one. A common fitment on warm hatches and quicker family cars.
All Season tyres compromise between summer and winter ability so one set can stay on the car all year. In moderate climates a good all season tyre is a genuinely strong choice; in hard winters or hot summers a dedicated tyre still does the job better.

A tyre needs at least 3 owner reviews to appear here. Owner ratings reward different things to tests - comfort, wear and value show up over thousands of miles, not on a test track.
What drivers say about All Season High Performance Tyres
The most recent owner reviews from this category, in their own words.
This is my second review of the tyres. I got these tyres last year and I felt confident driving in the wet even on mountainous roads in my small car. However, after the first rain of this season, I have had a few instances where I have lost traction or suffered from wheelspin. I am no longer feeling confident driving in these although they felt great last winter. Not sure whether this is due to the summer heat . I will be trying out a set of Dunlop Blue Response TG (although these are summer tyres, they seem to handle wet roads well).
These tires were replaced by the dealership I bought my pre-owned Polestar 2 from. Having heard how quickly EVs can go through a tire, I decided to see how they performed. I've driven 7000 miles in 6 months across late spring to early fall in sun, rain, warm and cold, but no winter weather. The tires have surprisingly good dry grip and are pretty sharp handling. Outright handing and performance isn't on the same level as something like the 200TW I autocross with, but plenty good for a road tire. The wet grip at low wear levels is very good, I haven't experienced any degree of hydroplaning, even at highway speeds with standing water and the cornering grip in the wet is solid. Whether it's the car or the tire, the combination does have an understeer bias. Overall, for the price I see these tires listed at, initial impressions are very good for a budget fair weather tire. Given the tread pattern, I probably won't give them a chance in winter, I can't imagine they'll stop an EV well in ice and snow, but that's purely speculation and caution. They seem to be wearing well so far and road noise is noticable, but not terrible. Overall, they performed better than I expected and I prefer them to the cross climate 2 and hankook ventus v2 concept 2 for summer commuting.
These tires were on my Cayenne 3.0d when I bought it. They aren't bad, but they aren't good either. They're mediocre. They might be noisy, but the car has good sound insulation, so you can't hear them..
I bought these to replace the continental's that came with my SUV. the continental's were terrible all around. These have great grip in the wet, snow, dry roads and most conditions. These were also more quiet than the original tires. I have about 25,000 miles on these and they barely look worn. They still have the same grip as when they were new.
Whether it's Dunlop, Continental, Firestone, or other budget tire brands (except for Nexen tires), they can't compete with this special all-season tire.
I do not have much experience with tyres. However, dry grip is good and wet grip is very good for the price (especially driving on mountain roads), but I wouldn't say it's the best (still exceptional for the price though). I have even tried it on light snowy days on uphill/downhill roads and it seems to handle that as well. I yet need to test it's longevity but so far the wear seems limited.
All Season High Performance Tyres EU label data
7 of the 55 tyres in this category carry EU label data. These are the category's label headliners, using each tyre's best available size figures.

66dB Quietest tyres
The quietest tyres in this category are labelled from 66 dB external noise:
Label values come from the EU EPREL database and vary by size - the figures here are each tyre's best declared size. Wet grip and rolling resistance run from class A (best) to E; noise is the measured drive-by figure. A good label is a floor, not a verdict: the tests and rankings above tell you far more.
