Default P Zero Nero M+S vs. Pilot Sport A/S

I live in Vancouver, Canada. Here I experience very little snow, but i want to be prepared for it anyways.
I am looking at the P Zero Nero M+S and Pilot Sport A/S, but I don't know which is better.
My main concerns are dry/wet of course, and I just want a all-season tire to avoid getting in accidents in the snow.
Which tire will suit my needs better?

Default hey I live Vancouver too and I was thinking exactly this two tires to compare...

on my 18X8 wheels
but I choose P ZERO just because of the price
if I don't statisfy with P ZERO I won't be "hurt" as much
btw the P ZERO is a new tire so no one knows how it performs in snow

We don't have much snow experience yet with the Pzero Nero M+S, but just based on what little we know in snow on this, the Sport A/S is likely to be stronger in snow. Both have very strong handling/cornering for an all season tire. There is also a very large price difference in most sizes.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&amp;url=/tires/index.jsp">Tires</a></li></ul>

Jason,

I noticed you put 18" wheels on your A4. I'm thinking about doing the same thing on my '00 A6 (stock is a 205/55/16) but I'm concerned about what I might give up in ride comfort. How was ride affected by your mods?

Default well I'm not sure about other tires... I'm using 235/40R18 Bridgestone S03 and...

feels much harsher than my orginal 235/40R17 Michelin Primacy

I think 17" is best for A6 for comfort/look/performance if you not planning to lower your car
