Tires Continental or BRIDGESTONE
Everyone says they're mid but I've yet to lose any sort of traction wet or dry. And I've tried.
have previously tried pilot support 4 but they didn't quite work as well on my car on initial turn in and wore a bit faster but both tyres are amazing in all conditions.
I'm happy with them so far, but they do wear faster.
Huge upgrade from the Michelins I had, which were horrible for fuel economy.
I replaced the run flats with Continental Sure Grip right of the rip. World of difference in ride.
The Bridgestone Weatherpeak is a better option. The WeatherPeaks have the advantage of being able to be actually rotated correctly.
Continental extreme contact I think is what my bf has on his little Audi sedan, and we got thru last winters blizzard with ease. All I know is they are hard to squeal cause they won’t slide!
Yeah I too have ran both Michelin AS3+ and PSAS4, and 2 sets of Continental DWS06 (the original and another set of the "Plus") and I choose the DWS06 since they are a little more comfort oriented, a little less summer performance oriented. Have not had any real complaints about any of them, besides maybe my AS3+ getting noisy as they wore down but they dont make or sell those anymore so it's a moot point. Love the treadlife on the DWS06.
I ran R11s for a while before switching to slicks. They are about as close in profile as you can get when compared to slicks. My only gripe is that they overheated really quickly, to the point where regular slicks last 2-3x as long.
Honestly I think it's bad business for Bridgestone to ship such crap tires on this vehicle, since it's turned me off from buying any Bridgestone tire in the future.
