Went with the Continental DW06 since I had them on the GTI. Night and Day from the Summer Tires, much better for driving around town.
The LE3 is probably the best value tire to get. They last a long time - for a while they had a 65k warranty but regularly lasted 80k miles with regular alignments.
The le3 are the only oem style tire id ever recommend. I’ve never seen a manufacturing issue, they last forever and are quite quiet for what they are.
I have a solid set of Continental Tires that have held up well in Buffalo weather.
I have had good success with Continental Race Kings. They are not specifically hardened/flat proof, but the knobs keep the tire away from thorns and glas shards.
Get a good pair of Continental Extreme Contacts.
I did a bunch of research and went with bridgestone blizzaks. They make my winter drives way more enjoyable. I can't believe I'd gone without them for so long. Plow up hills/etc that I would never think about attempting in previous years.
Blizzak DM V2 are the only ones I have experience with, but they are miles better than ATs on my 4Runner (and I have the Nokians).
I went with Continental UltimateContact Winter. Not too far off X-Ice although a little less good on ice but instead better in wet and dry.
Continental DWS06.
Heard great reviews of people saying this was an amazing all season tire with tons of grip in all conditions, great for sports cars year round that see some winter use too.
My god these tires felt hard as a rock compared to the Michelin A/S3+ I had on another set of wheels. Just not as much grip at all as I was expecting in the dry. Even in light snow, my TC light would flash more than when I was on the Michelins.
