2017 w/19"
The A36s are done.
I live in the coastal range in Oregon but work in the valley, so I commute ~40 miles each way over a 1500 foot pass on the craziest road of 180-degree switchbacks and high grades (with a dead drop on one side, an upward cliff on the other) when I have to go into town.
I am not as worried about snow/ice (I will just stay home if I can't drive it) but I am really, really worried about wet cornering. (In particular because I love to hammer those switchbacks from time to time )
I am looking at the Pirelli Cinturato P7s. But I see the occasional gripe about wet performance.
Consumer reports doesn't seem to mind. The billion reviews on Tire Rack on *average* don't seem to have the same issue (but some individual comments do.)
Given I have not plumetted to my death on the A36s (and I think they are horrible tires) ....
Mountain out of a molehill and pull the trigger on the Perillis? Go for Continental (but I had a bad OEM experience with those on my truck...)? General RT43?
I am mentally just blocked on this.
