Tires Continental or BFGoodrich
Continental ECS 02. 205/50-15. $140 each.
Even though a 340 rating they bite hard and still do quite well with cooler weather and light rain.
All season continental.
I have run DWS06+'s all year long on my dailies for years... They are unbeatable. I currently have a GR Corolla with them and it doesn't matter what season or what the conditions are... It crushes it.
I was running Conti ECS 02s on my just recently traded in 2022 GT RF and they were fantastic. Can’t wait to put those on my 2025 RF Club as soon as I need tires. Huge difference in both wet and dry. Coming from 2 sets on Michelin pilot sports and 2 sets of pilot sport 4s on my old Stage 3 8V Audi S3 and the Conti’s are very very similar to me in what I do as far as aggressive driving.
I’ll put a vote in for conti extreme contact sports, the car feels so good on the 2 sets I’ve been through so far.
Only downside is that they seem to wear somewhat quickly, my last set only lasted me like 12k, but it being my fun car, it pretty much only sees fairly hard use
Been running 33\u201d KO2s on my Tacoma since \u201821 in NH. Great traction on the ice & snow, no issues with them up here.
I recently replaced mine on a 21 Cherokee trailhawk with a set of BF Goodrich Trail Terrain all weather. Seem great so far and usable in any conditions (Southern Ontario).
I switched off of those to a set of Continental Vikingcontact 8 this year. I don't know if it's because my Xice were old or what but I find the contis to be about 50% (subjective, obviously) better than the michelins
I’ve had KO2s on my 2023 4Runner for the last 2 years. Pretty good off road and on dry pavement but can be downright scary on rainy days on road. If you live somewhere that doesn’t have a long rainy season then they are fine. But not good for rainy days around town.
I'm at 22k miles on my 2024 RR, and the KO3s are looking pretty worn down, especially in the rear. I live in NYC, rarely ever take it off the pavement, and I am not impressed how the KO3s perform in the rain.
