I wanted a quieter, smoother tire for daily driving and the Conti's fit that bill perfectly. I've driven in snow and the Conti's were great. There is one main trade-off though, the handling of the car in spirited driving did change some. The Advan's had stiffer sidewalls and therefore the car seemed to have less "roll" when cornering (obviously on dry pavement). Honestly, that means nothing to me though, I was looking for a tire that was quieter, and smoother for daily driving and the Conti's are perfect for me.
