Same with the continental dws and gmax.
Both are all season tires.
I have ran both of those, on 275 gmax's I got over 30k miles and did better that I thought they would in light snow, the wet traction was great.
Put on the 285 dws in November and happy so far, have not had to put them in snow like I did the Gmax but are supposed to be better, I think the Gmax is better in rain.
