If we were to put on full winters in the Bay Area they would wear out during our normal drives on the way up on I-80.

I am personally looking at the Michelin Pilot AS4s as the AS3+ are now discontinued at the local Tire America in WC. Also heard great things about the DWS06. It will be between those two for me.
Yeah, seems to be 6 of one, half dozen of the other. Mixed reviews on both from both professionals and seat of the pants normal drivers. I'll probably prioritize keeping road noise to a minimum unless I can find some hard quantifiable comparisons of turning G's / stopping distances on ice or something.
