I'm running Pilot Sports on my E55 and am considering a shift over to
the A/S version of the same tire. I'm not running the car in snow but
occasionally I'll run it in the wet. Will the All Season(A/S) tire trade
off much in the way of dry handling?

I saw a Mercedes bulletin that said under no circumstances use the A/S
model.

Performance tire is everything except snow... so don't change it. Going from
Performance tire to All season tire is very very very dramatic difference in
traction and performance.
