Summer vs all-season
I live in Florida so I don't drive in snow. I have an IS 250 with 18" wheels. Comparing summer to all-season tires, which ones are quieter and have better ride comfort? e.g. Continental ExtremeContact DW vs. DWS?
Even though I don't drive in snow, I am still considering all-seasons because they usually have longer treadlife.

Thanks for the advice. I found that my choices are extremely limited in the sizes I need. Front 225/40R18, Rear 255/40R18 or maybe 245/40R18.
For Grand or Standard Touring All-Season there's only Bridgestone Turanza EL400-02, Kumho Ecsta LX Platinum and Continental ContiProContact.
For Grand Touring Summer there's only my current OEM Bridgestone Turanza ER33.
I guess low noise and ride comfort don't go together with low profile 18 inch... Maybe I'll investigate getting 17" wheels.
