Recommendations on All-Weather Tires

Looking for input on All-Weather (not all-season) tires.

Anyone running any of these or had any good experience with some in the past? Trying to find some and it seems difficult with all the major online retailers.

Looking for 205 /45 R17 stock size.

How do you define the difference in All weather vs All Season?

Ability to handle deep snow but usable for warm weather? If so it's still an All Season tire but good in snow.

Ultra High Performance All Season tire class

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ $157 each
Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 $128 each
BFG g-Force COMP2 A/S $96 each

Tirerack test results for this class-

The new General GMAX AS-05 is a great all around performance all season as well. Tire Rack rates it really highly, and I have it on both a 2012 Jetta and a 2014 328 and love it on both of them. It performs decently in all weather conditions so far including some ice and snow.

Goodyear Eagle® F1 Asymmetric All-Season is what I've been running for several years. Two sets on my R56 and that's what I'm running on my F56. Never had a complaint.
