Tires Continental or FEDERAL
continental extreme contact sports after 1 year and 20k milesof hard driving, a pretty great tire if you asked me
I had Continental Extreme Contact Sports on previously and I also really liked those, and they were a good bit cheaper considering the size we gotta use.
I recently bought a new to me truck with 285/60/20 federal couragia fx tires. So far they ride really well in dry or wet weather, warm or cold.
Continental Extreme Contact Force looks to be an awesome RS4 alternative. I haven't had a chance to try them yet but by all accounts and reviews they're a little quicker than the RS4 with the same kind of long life and resistance to overheating.
I've been using Continental GP5000's with latex tubes for several years and have had great service out of them. I generally get about 5,000 miles out of a set and might get a puncture every 2,500 miles or so.
I run GP5000 with latex inner. Replaced Michelin Pro 4 Endurance and standard tubes. I find the GP5000 to be super grippy, i run 28c front and back at 80 psi
My wife and I put about 5k miles a year (each) on GP 5000s with latex tubes, and absolutely love them. That combination is fast, comfortable, and very durable on our carbon rims. Last year we had 2 flats total between us, so to us, not worth the hassle of going tubeless. The GP5000s also last the full 5k miles before needing replacement. Very highly recommended!!
These are what I race on with latex tubes. They feel faster than 4000 IIs or Bontrager R3s with butyl.
federal rs-rr are decent but they do get greasy towards the end of your sessions.
I was thinking about running 185/60-13's for a while. All that I could find where Federal 595 and Achilles 122 which are both ****ty tires.
