All Season Tires - Yokohama or Michelin or Pirelli

I seem to have the same tire experience with Porsches. They come new with Pirellis, I find myself quite happy with them but hear others complain and so replace them with Michelins after they've worn. I'll do the same when the original Pirellis wear out on the 23 GTS but I'm going to stick with the Pirelli winters I'm using for the cold part of the year or go with Nokians if fitment and handling checks out. The Pirelli winters have a eally great balance between handling and traction.

I will go with Conti DWS 06 on my 24 Macon S. They were great on the Audi Forums for All Seasons Tires and I have no reason to suspect they wont do well here.

In looking at the Conti DWS 06 PLUS tires for the Macan, it appears Tire Rack does not recommend them for our car due to a speed rating difference between the fronts; 265/45 R20 (Y-rated, 186mph) and the rears; 295/40 R20 (W-rated, 168mph).
That said, I still think I will go with them, when it comes time to replace the Pirellis currently mounted, which should be fairly soon.

We have put 20k plus miles on Pirelli Scorpion (21 inch) and it has been fine in wet weather. The car came with Pirelli P Zero tires which were annoyingly noisy. The Scorpion also has the annoying tire drone at freeway speeds, which is why they need to go. They will be replaced with Michelin before next winter. I love the DWS 06 but I have not found them in the correct sizes.
