Pilot Super AS 3
I had the subject tires installed on my 2013 GS 350 F Sport today at Discount Tire. Put 245's on the front due to the tire not available in a 235. The availability of the 245 is limited. However they found 2 somewhere. The only concern is the performance in snow based on the reviews. Does anyone have any experience with the tires in snow?

I have them on my 2012 Audi A8L and they are not that great of an all season in the snow. But I have separate set of winter tires and rims using Michelin Xice Xi3 tires. On my 2013 GS I use Michelin Primacy MXM4 tires which are quite good in the light to moderate snow compared to the Pilot Sport A/S3. I use size 245/40R19 like you.

When I reference the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3, I consider it an amazing 3 season tire. The driver in areas that will see minimal snowfall, mostly colder temps, rain, and of course warm temps, will love this tire. It does not perform well in the snow. 
A performance all season tire that does perform in the snow is the Continental Extreme Contact DWS.
When you look at the survey results between the two tires, be sure to check the amount of miles that have been reported.
