If you are planning on fitting them on your current rim, go for the OEM tire size.

as for how long conti lasts, it completely depends on the mileage you do yearly. But there is the DWS logo on the tire tread, when the S is warn out, they will not do well in snow any longer. My guess is around 2-3 yrs of driving, depending on mileage.

As for the 3, it's really not fair to compare all season to winters, it's your personal call if you want a set of dedicated tires for winter and another set for summer season, or just a set for all season.

I have had DMV1, they are good in snow, but not great when dry and warm (above freezing) the tires are very soft and does not corner well. No personal experience with Pirelli, so can't comment
