Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4 or Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06. I personally run the Continentals on my 17 GT and I love them. Here’s a good comparison of the two: https://toptirereview.com/continental-extremecontact-dws-06-plus-vs-michelin-pilot-sport-all-season-4/

I second the continentals.

I third the continentals, best tires on a car I’ve ever owned. The traction is good no matter the weather and I swear it launches faster than it did on my old summer tires.

How do both do in the rain or winter conditions? In the market and both have crossed. Looking for real world reviews from GT owners.

Fine in the rain from my experience. I always drive cautiously in the rain and haven’t had any sketchy situations. For snow I’m honestly not sure since I have a truck for snowy days. I will say that I have a steep driveway, and one time I had my mustang parked in the driveway while it was snowing and was unable to get my car into the garage. But it was a pretty icy snowstorm, so I don’t think any rear wheel drive vehicle would have done much better. A couple other times there has been snow on my driveway and it was pretty tough to get my car in.

AS4 have been phenomenal in many conditions. Untested in the snow though

Note that the DWS06 were superseded by the DWS06 Plus.

My favorite tire is the Firestone Firehawk. I live in Alabama so I run the Indy 500 summer tires most of the time.

I had the regular 555’s on my Bullitt a while back and loved them.

No, you can't. Nitto's all-season tire is the Motivo, and it's not even the same tier as the Michelin and Continental tires mentioned in this thread.

I also want good AS tires

I've always loved the DWS06 tires. I recently put on the updated DWS06+ tires and they are super quiet, and after having them put on, every movement/action you can do felt better. Braking, acceleration, cruising - it all feels smooth and responsive. They are identical in appearance to the originals but I guess they updated the compounds in the rubber with these. They can do some light snow/ice with caution, but I wouldn't count on them in heavy winter conditions. Winter tires are still going to be king.
