Which tire? General UHP or Continental

The Continental seem like the better deal. All seasons with speed rating of Z, but the General UHP I had before (not the same wheels) have treated me very well.
Which one do you recommend? If neither, which other brand in that price range per tire? Thanks!
19" and I want the quietest ride possible.

The ultra-high performance you need in all season conditions. This tire features a silica compound for remarkable traction and mileage.

I just went to Discount Tire to get my tires mounted on my Pilot and I inquired about new tires for my TL. He had nothing but positive feedback for the Continentals. I would've considered it but they are asymmetrical and cannot be flipped to compensate for camber wear so I'm gonna go with the Yokohama S. Drives which he also said were good tires. Theres a $40 rebate with these tires if you buy before Sept 18 from Discount Tire or Discount Tire Direct.

I had 235/35/19 general UHP's when i had my ron jons on, Great tire but in the winter, or rain they really were not good.. Actually going to get 4 new all season continentals next week for my stock rims... BTW You cant compare all season and summer tires you wont get anywhere with suggestions

I love General UHP just because I had them for my A SPECs and they run great. I never researched tires before and just started because I got a good deal for the UHP from Discount Tire.
I mean there in the same ball-park of prices and also the Continental DW for 19" 245/35/19 are more expensive. I want something VERY QUIET and it seems like the Continental DWS does the work from reviews from AZ and from tire rack. It also has a 50k warranty add that with Discount Tire certs. I'm guaranteed to have a tire that last at least for 50k miles. And the fact that Texas rains a lot, it has good reviews on wet surfaces

Probably because I will save $45 per tire, and that I travel a lot and don't know when I would hit snow. I will be driving too New York in Feburary, so I will hit snow, well I hope. I like having something that fits every condition just incase I have to move and adapt to a different area. (Medical School in 1 year so wherever I'm accepted, I'm going)

In that case, the DWS makes complete sense. All the hype about this tire is true; you will be satisfied if/when you make this purchase. Also, the best way to shop for the lowest prices is price comparison shopping. www.tires.com will match (and it may case beat the competition by $60 total - 4 tires) any competitors price. Just log onto the website and provide them with the link where you found it lower. In 1 day a salesman will email you with a phone number to call back. They have the ability to sell you the tires way below the website's advertised price and they have free shipping. I highly recommend them. Maybe if more people on Acurazine buy from them, they will lower their prices even more.
