Good all season tires?

On my last post I asked about the Goodyear f1 super car tires. After I made the post i realized that they are summer only tires. When I end up getting the car I would want all season tires. What is a good all season tires that have similar performance to the Goodyears and last ~12k miles? I’m thinking the continental extreme contact DWS 06 but I don’t know if the performance is similar to the Goodyear f1s and I don’t know how long they last. Also this would be on the 1LE so I would have the bigger tires.

Weird. I’ve looked on YouTube and I’ve seen people putting them in 6th Gen camaro ss (only on non 1LE though) and also on tire rack it shows that they fit.

I got general g max rs last Friday. The original Goodyear run flat all season lasted 28k miles.The general tires make the car so much better to drive. I would never buy run flats. They are terrible in comparison.

Continental DWS 06 Plus, Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 or 4, Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate, Cooper Zeon.

Can't go wrong with the above, if you're not getting an SS, ZL1, or 1LE model it will have All Seasons already.

The G-Max RS is a summer tire, OP is looking for all-season.
"The G-MAX™ RS is an excellent, summer ultra-high performance tire for passenger cars and crossovers." from General Tire's Web page.

The All-season option from General is the G-Max AS05. I don't know if it offers 1LE sizes...

Had the Continentals on my SS sedan. Not as good for grip as the stock Bridgestones, but better ride, much quieter and zero issues in the winter.

I like my Conti Extreme Contact DWS06 plus - much better ride than the stock runflats (but of course they are not runflats). On Tire Rack they are available for stock SS and 1le sizes. You have to make sure they are the 'plus' version - that's the current version.

I put Nitto Invos on my ZL1 back in the day. similiar to the 1LE sizes. They fit and were much better about the car constantly hunting on roads with rutted pavement.

The minute I received my car I had he Goodyears removed and replaced by the Michelin A/S pilot sport 4. So far I love them.

I am selling the Eagle F1’s with only 15 miles on the tires if anyone is interested

If I was concerned about tire life, I would just get the LT1.
Why get the SS 1LE option if you're not going to push it?
