New 2020 X4 tire help

My 2020 x4 m40i will be here soon and I ordered the 699m non-RFT tires, will be needing to switch out immediately to an all-season. Any votes/reasons to do the DSW06 over the Pilot A/S? I've used the DSW06 for two sets on my X5 and felt that they never balanced well and was thinking about the A/S this time. Anyone with experience offer advice X3/X4?

I just had the Pilot A/S 3+ fitted to my M40i today (19” 245/50R19) on 698M wheels.

I’ve had the Pilot A/S 3+ on my previous car (340ix) as well.

On the X3 they feel great - good turn in, smooth, quiet, no issues with grip. Huge improvement in feel over the RFTs they replaced (Duelers).

That's good news, have you had them in snow or wintery conditions?

Yeah, I think we need to know what kind of conditions you need them to perform in.

For an all-season I learned towards winter performance over extra summer grip, so I went with the QUATRAC 5 in 20" OEM size. No snow yet, but they handle awesome on cold dry pavement.

Run flats I took off were TERRIBLE

Sorry, i thought my tagged location would give that away. We get a decent amount of snow, but we have a 4Runner for going into the mountains. with my X5 w DSW06, they do ok... as long as it's not too icy of more than a few inches then i'll just work from home. I was mainly asking about the mixed usage throughout the year. in NE Colorado.
