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 bought continental sw06 extreme contact. I like them.pair on wife's tdi and the mk7.5 gti.not Michelin but they work all yr round.
Dws06 here. The rain grip is wow. The snow grip is snow tire like for me in Western NY where I need it. Dry grip is fine. Best all season tires I think I've ever had.
I got extreme contact dws06 on mine. I love them. Great grip in wet and dry conditions for 30% less than the Michelins. Super quiet too
I have Motomaster Eliminators (3peak whatever made by Cooper) and they're great for city driving and the odd jaunt out of town. I drive an SUV with 4wd and put in maybe 15000km/year so they don't have much wear and I don't have to worry about swapping tires every year.
I don’t have an S5. I have an A7. I had the Pirelli’s just put the Continental DWS06 Plus on and in my opinion, they ride way better.
I’m running gp5000 AS TR in 28s they’ve been great.
The SportContact 6 have been disappointing in a few areas: poor rolling resistance, high wear, and noticeable road noise. I’d like to improve on those aspects while keeping good wet grip. I don’t mind a bit less dry handling — the SportContact 6 are insanely good there, but I’m not tracking the car, so that level of performance isn’t really necessary for public roads.
Worse stock tire -> we've got Continental EcoContact 6.
