Like  their name suggest, all season tires are designed to give drivers performance year-round. All-season tires often provide strong performance in dry and wet conditions, and suitable traction and grip in wintery weather.

Passenger tires are some of the most common tires you'll find on the roads today, and frequently used on coupes, sedans, hatchbacks, minivans, and other passenger vehicles. Passenger tires are available in a wide variety of types, such as all-season, winter, and ultra-high-performance.

## 1. Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus - Best UHP All-Season tire

Let’s kick this list off with a top-rated ultra-high-performance all-season tire, the [Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus](https://simpletire.com/brands/continental-tires/extremecontact-dws06-plus). Continental’s engineers were shooting for a tire that made no compromises when they designed the ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus. This is a tire that can deliver UHP levels of overall handling, cornering, braking, and steering response. That kind of performance is paired with the kind of consistent grip that drivers rely on to safely get through all kinds of weather conditions year-round. The ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus is an even better value when you remember that most UHP and summer tires have to be exchanged for all-season tires in colder weather; they use a rubber formulation that will stiffen up and lose traction below 40-45 degrees F. [Continental](https://simpletire.com/brands/continental-tires) upgraded the proven track record of the ExtremeContact DWS06 further in just about every area, starting with the Sport+ Tech package that’s capable of spirited performance and cornering ability. Handling confidence gets a strong boost from its reinforced 2-ply sidewalls and macroblocks in the tread, for an outstanding SimpleScore of 9.9 in that category. Year-round grip is enhanced with a silica-enriched tread compound for long wear and great wet-weather traction. For rainy or light wintry conditions, there’s a system of circumferential grooves, sweeping lateral grooves, and X-sipes that multiply traction on wet or snowy pavement. SimpleScore for traction: a very solid 9.8. The Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus is covered by a 60,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty (unlike most UHP tires), for a SimpleScore of 9.2 in the longevity department.

## 2. Toyo Celsius II - Best All-Weather tire

[All-weather tires](https://simpletire.com/categories/all-weather-tires) as a category might be unfamiliar to some drivers. You can think of them as having a lot of commonality with their all-season tire brethren, except they’re designed with features that can give a boost to winter performance. In other words, they split the difference between all-season and winter tires in terms of performance, but with more emphasis on winter traction.. The [Toyo Celsius II](https://simpletire.com/brands/toyo-tires/celsius-ii) is a great example of what all-weather tires are about, with improved grip and performance in wet or wintry conditions paired with ride comfort, handling, and low noise that are along the lines of a Grand Touring tire. Not surprisingly with that kind of performance, the Toyo Celsius II has the Three Peak Mountain Snowflake rating for severe winter conditions, with a silica-rich tread formulation that’s designed to deliver long wear as well as consistent grip in wet or wintry weather. The Celsius II’s tread design is an asymmetric pattern, with large, solid tread blocks, a dense network of multi-wave sipes, and hundreds of extra hair-thin edges that multiply grip to slice its way through snow and slush. SimpleScore for traction: 8.7. Our SimpleScore for handling is 8.6 – cornering, high-speed stability, braking, and steering response are all very precise thanks to its tread pattern and a high-rigidity design that includes a polyester casing with two steel belts. All those features also figure into our SimpleScore of 9.6 for longevity (and for a Toyo limited manufacturer tread life warranty of 60,000 miles).

## 3. Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter - Best Winter tire

Now it’s time for our pick for the best 245/55R18 winter tire, the [Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter](https://simpletire.com/brands/goodyear-tires/eagle-enforcer-winter). The Eagle Enforcer Winter is a police-grade winter tire; it’s been proven to deliver top performance in police testing. The SimpleTire team gave a  very strong SimpleScore of 9.8 for traction for the Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter. Goodyear designed it with a proven winter tread compound and directional V-Tred tread pattern that’s packed with angled grooves and sipes to cut through snow, slush, and standing water for shorter braking distances and consistent traction. Handling is predictable and on-point, with a SimpleScore of 9.8, with Goodyear’s ActiveResponse Technology for enhanced cornering and control. Steering response and road manners also get high marks, with a custom tread formulation that’s distributed throughout the tread in zones for wet or dry pavement performance. With a SimpleScore of 7.5, the Goodyear Eagle Enforcer Winter does lose a little ground on longevity, but it’s important to remember this is a dedicated winter tire for cold-weather use only, not an all-season tire. Like all winter tires, the Eagle Enforcer Winter uses a tread formulation that’s softer to stay flexible in subfreezing weather but will wear quickly in warmer conditions. [Winter tires](https://simpletire.com/categories/winter-tires) shouldn’t be used if temperatures are above 40-45 degrees F.

## 4. Kumho Ecsta PA31 - Best UHP tire

We need to include a UHP tire in this roundup, and when it comes to [ultra-high-performance tires](https://simpletire.com/categories/uhp-tires), we're pretty impressed with the Ecsta PA31 from Kumho, especially considering that this is a UHP tire that’s also capable of all-season performance. The Ecsta PA31 is designed with a mildly directional tread pattern with circumferential and lateral grooves, along with a network of sipes and tread block edges that enable improved grip even in light wintry weather, for a SimpleScore of 8.6 for traction. Kumho’s ESCOT design package helps equalize cord tension in the sidewall and casing for high-speed stability and great steering response and cornering – we arrived at a SimpleScore of 8.6 for this tire. The [Kumho Ecsta PA31](https://simpletire.com/brands/kumho-tires/ecsta-pa31) is backed by a 50,000 mile warranty, which is impressive since many UHP tires don’t have a mileage warranty at all, and earned a SimpleScore of 8.4 in longevity. Overall SimpleScore for the Kumho Ecsta PA31 is 8.5.

### 5. Sumitomo HTR A/S P03 - Good All-Season tire

Let’s wrap this list up with the HTR A/S P03 from [Sumitomo](https://simpletire.com/brands/sumitomo-tires), an all-season tire that’s a great choice for powerful, high-horsepower sedans, coupes, and crossovers as well as smaller models. Sumitomo designed the HTR AS P03 with their Miura-Ori multi-siping system, circumferential grooves, and innovative “fin”-shaped grooves that all give enough of a boost in grip for an M+S rating for mud/snow traction (as well as a SimpleScore of 8.5 from us). The tread design helps to control squirm and tread deformation while cornering, aided by a sticky silica-enhanced tread compound, cross-designed grooves and sipes, and a reinforced high-tension bead apex (SimpleScore of 9.0 for handling). Durability is also a real plus with the [HTR AS P03](https://simpletire.com/brands/sumitomo-tires/htr-a-s-p03), thanks to tough internal construction and that tread compound, with Sumitomo offering up to a 65,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty (depending on tire size), and earning a longevity SimpleScore of 8.7.
