All season, it's the Vredestein Quatrac Pros, no question -- my full fitment and commentary notes here

I'm about to replace OEM on my Q7. Will go with Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 from Costco.

LOVE these! Over 30K on mine now and doing very well. A big improvement from both the stock Continentals and the summers I ran previously.

There's no such thing as a "best" all season tire. By their nature, all seasons are a compromise.

Run Goodyear Latitude or Pirelli or DWS06 for three seasons and Nokian R5 winter tires in the winter.

If I lived in western Mass, and needed to get anywhere reliably, that's what I would do! (Shoot...I do that on Cape Cod, where we don't get nearly as much of the white stuff!)

Having dedicated winters will cost you less in the long run...you'll get more years by swapping sets and if you get dedicated wheels, you can even swap them yourself...

Plus you're less likely to be paying collision deductibles.

Thank God I now live where we almost never get snow. We just mounted the Vredestein's on our SQ7 and they've been great.

I disagree ..there is a best all season tire. There is a best in every category even if you don't agree with people using them.

Personally, I’d replace them with all weather tires (3 peak mountain symbol) if you’re going to encounter snow.

I ran with Nokian WRG4’s in 19’s on my 2019 Q7. They were very quiet. Other options are teh Michelin Cross Climate 2’s which I had on my Touareg - also a very good tire.
