Tires Continental or DEXTER
I run Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires. 50k tire. No complaints.
I did have Continental ExtremeContact DSW06's on my ST and they were really good.
I bought these dextero all season tires 3 years ago. Every year I drive about 35k to 40k miles. I drive even during snow storm and these tires have a very good grip. So far, I don't have any complaints about this brand. It has a 50k mile warranty.
They felt so sketchy I went out and dropped 800 on continentals and I can barely make them break traction and can corner way harder. Feel more planted and safe.
My wife purchased a used Acura Integra. When I drove it just didn't handle as precise as I expected. We replaced them with.... Continental. All of a sudden the handling was much better and safer.
You could save some money and have better handling by choosing something that's not run flat. I use Continental Extreme Contact tires (\~$947 installed with no alignment at Les Schwab, and yes I could have gotten them cheaper elsewhere but LS gives out credit like it's free candy) and I love them so far...
Conti's DH tires are just the best. Its almost concerning how much grip I have compared to similar maxxis tires.
The current DH Conti line is the best tire out there right now. But holy crap, is it hard to get on rims.
Continental tires are popular because they're cheaper than Michelin and Pirelli tires. Contis also last longer.
I bought Continental LX25’s. They felt unsure, unstable, kind of jittery right from day 1 at high speed. New replacement set feels slightly better but still not smooth as glass. The steering wheel doesn’t shake, but I feel through the seat and floor a sense of unsteadiness. Like the car is a bit jittery, where the Michelins felt smooth as glass. BUT - I also can’t believe these tires are so junky. They weren’t cheap tires. They feel great up to 50mph , ok from 50-65, and then above 70 it’s jittery.
