Continetal DWS 06+ have some fantastic reviews on Tire Rack. I just put some on our "beater", a 2013 1 Series, 6MT.
Conti 4 Season are my favorite. They have a good mix of durability, comfort, puncture resistance, and grip.
I'm using the Continental Sport 02 in 205/50/15, 3 season daily with autocross events. No complaints, plenty of grip dry or wet. Very confidence inspiring tire.
I'm out of Chicagoland (close enough to you) and I rock Continental control contact tires. Best thing in the world for all seasons in the snow. Great in our stupid rain too. You really feel nice and planted in them.
I may go with Continental once I need new tires.
Tires are everything. They are the only part of your bike that touches the ground and they make the biggest difference in rolling resistance and comfort.
Spend your money on GOOD TIRES before boosting the performance. The car gets very torquey when tuned, and if you don\u2019t have rubber that can grip the road consistently, you will find yourself spinning if you start out a bit too exuberantly. I have Continental ProContact all seasons.
From that list I would get the Continental Conti Ultra Contact because it's the quietest tire there with A tier wet performance.
I had a set of Continentals do the same thing on my wife’s gently driven Escape. I am religious about tire pressure, and they otherwise wore evenly.
Oh heck no to the Conti's unless you like a super soft sidewall that likes to bubble when it passes by a pothole let alone hits one. I don't get the fascination with them other than the price. I ran them on my old GLI and they were neither good in the rain/cold nor really all the special in the dry.
