Karen needs a new set of rubber for her Audi Q7...currently running Bridgestone Duelers 265/50 R19 110H model tires. Tread wear has not been that great. I did some online shopping/research and found these Nitto tires...any thoughts?

I have only balanced a couple sets of Nitto tires. Neither were quite as "round" as Michelin or Continental. The vehicle is 4 wheel drive, so if comfort (i.e. highway) is a priority, I don't know that you need an all season tire. On the other hand, if the priority is ice and snow (are we really talking about ice and snow...? it's 100 freakin degrees here today!!!!) then the Nittos are a good option.
My first choice would be Michelin. $1,219.56 set of four. Second choice would be Continental. $1,124.40 set of four. Both at tirerack.com

I have a set of Michelin Pilot Sports on my '11 WRX and absolutely love them. When you get them a little warm they handle really, really well. I do not change to snow tires and while I would suggest it, with the winters you have up north Tom, I'd think regardless of the tire you'll need to do so.
