AS4, it's what I have used on my cars for years and what I'm using for current car's winter wheels.

I got the A/S 4 installed today. Rides great and worked well in some slush. I had thought the previous set I got 80K out of was Pilot Sport A/S 3, but it wasn't (got confused with what's on my Mustang) They were less sporty 60K mile warranted Michelin Premier A/S.

My new A/S 4 are Y speed rated to 189 MPH. That'll come in handy. I think my 530I has a top speed just over 150.

A slightly more in depth review of the AS4 is they ride very smooth and are very quiet. The brake feel seems improved and it seems easier to modulate over the previous Michelin Premier I had previously. I've never noticed such a change in braking feel with a tire change before.

I wondered if I was giving up too much over the CrossClimate 2 in going to a 45 thousand mile warranty tire over the 60K CrossClimate. As much as I like the A/S 4 at this point, the 15K loss of tire mileage is likely worth it.

Yep. The Premier makes much more sense on the mileage you got. The UHP All Season class is the literal "Do Everything" tire, and from reports, the AS4 is almost as good as the CrossClimate 2 in the snow. If there wasn't such a deal on the Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate, I probably would have ended up with these.

Got a chance to test the AS4 in snow in Wisconsin last week. About 6" on the ground, packed down to about 3" in the passing lane, and patches of snow in the slow lane. Mostly stayed in the slow lane but did travel on some unplowed and mostly unpacked in town. They did amazingly well for a tire without much snow bias. I'd call them not terrifying if caught in a medium snowfall.

I have AS4 on a MINI Clubman and am enjoying them immensely.
