Continental Extreme Contact DWS06’s are excellent. Same size as the summer tires on the Golf R. Excellent winter traction, I’ve had these on all my GTI’s, and I just put them on my new R.
shitty frs prius tires to firestone firehawk indy 500s
215 to 245
Went from oh my god what the fuck is this to oh my god it's like I'm getting gripped by a large african man and^it^feels^amazing
Only after 3 months replaced with Yokohama Advan Sport A/S.
Current review on them is:
Dry pavement: A+ (I can take turns like a race driver on bare pavement and still feel safe)
Wet Pavement: B (Only problem I’ve had starting aggressively is on wet pavement with road markings on them, seems good on corners and doesn’t hydroplane on really wet pavement, but loses traction with hard braking on very wet pavement)
Roughish Roads: A- (my car has low clearance and low profile tires but got by easily on FS roads with medium rocks and being careful. It gets the minus because after driving 75 miles on semi rough FS roads and getting back to pavement, I pulled to the side of the highway and had a metal chunk lodge into the sidewall ruining the tire)
Went from Cooper Discoverer 17 inch to 20 inch Nitto 420S. It's day and night. I literally have a track truck now. The truck is already dropped so it handles like a little sport car now.
When I first started autocross, I was on mismatched all seasons with different tires all around. A local autocrosser with old tires took pity on me and gifted me a set of used Toyo Proxes R1R he didn't need any more. Mind. Blown.
I installed 235f and 255r for a wider look. Continental extreme contact dsw. SL sidewall load range so not as solid as XL. I had to put more air in \~38lbs because they were mushy in curves but now seem fine. I trust them more in the rain than I would high performance tires.
Went from some random all seasons that the prior owner had, to Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Now I have the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.
I went from some random tires (Achilles or something) to Yoko AD08rs and yeah those were amazing. So much better on Khanacross and back roads
I went through a few sets of DW's on my mk4. I finally caved and bought PSS's and will never go back. The wet performance was unreal on the DW's, but they left a lot to be desired in the dry after having some time with PSS's.
My newish Michelin Defenders did that.
