Just upgraded from the stock Toyos to the Continental DWS06+, first time I’ve went for some premium tires and the difference is night and day. The way you feel planted to the ground is next level compared to stock, even more so in the rain.
Trust me... okay... I know way too much about tires... my close friend is the owner of Wheel wiz... go for the Viking Contact 7... the only disadvantage is slightly slower braking on wet/dry/ice.... bad ice will take out literally any car... which means what? It's a driver's judgment error, or you should have avoided driving that day altogether. The continental tire is considerably quieter. it has the vibration and shaking. It will last longer. And when you're in SNOW it's actually much better than Blizzaks you will have the actual best lateral G control/turn-in out of any tire. You will have the best acceleration in any tire which translates to better fuel economy and being able to get out of the way of a slow-moving sliding vehicle faster in a sudden emergency maneuver getting movement going FAST can save the day. They really perform well in snow and they will be less expensive... just get continentals trust me and thank me later. much more enjoyable drive
I swapped out my Potenza's in favour of year round all seasons - I went for Pirelli's new PZero AS Plus 3s. The grip in moderate temperatures (wet & dry) so far has been fantastic, they do have a bit of a high pitched whine to them in the wet though.
My Mazda3 OEM tires were BRIDGESTONE
TURANZA EL440, and they worked amazingly and lasted for a full 50k miles.
I'm now running Michelin Power Cup TLRs for my road setup (similar to GP5000s) and I beat my fastest commute, my fastest long descent, and my fastest loop with hills handily. Before that I was running heavy commuter slicks.
I love my Conti Viking 7's. I'm in Eastern Ontario. Great in all conditions. Firm sidewalls...not marshmallowy(225 45 17). Low noise on bare pavement. Unreal treadware for a winter tire.
I just went from $20 chain reaction tires to new pirelli pzero race 4s tires. They are better in every way: faster, lighter, quieter, better ride, look better.
Had the WR G4 SUV on my Ford Edge, much better then the stock Michelin Latitude tires, especially in winter.
Im on the Michelins from the factory and just noticed the rears are starting to show some wear in the center. I’m at about 14,000 miles.
Landsail tires should not be trusted at all, and Darwin will be having a meeting with you at that speed.
