Couldn't agree more.

So in your opinion pretty much these 2 options?

1) Snow tires for winter season and leave summer tires in my warehouse during winter

2) If I'm looking for snow performance and I'm gonna get DWS06 just for that then keep my performance tires and don't swap anything

Ended up getting the DWS06. They drive way better than the factory Pirelli P Zeros in my opinion. Happy with my purchase.

Just got mine on. Was quite happy with the BF Dueller RFT. Lasted me about 25k miles and weren't annoying until about 5k miles ago with noise. Wore very evenly. Rears faster than front understandably and fronts wore more in the inner wall. Had probably another 3-4K miles but weather here is hit or miss and don't want to be stuck in a snow storm with my pants down.
