I have those Continental tires. I like them, but I might not be the best tester. I do spirited drives on the weekends. They're good on turns but I recently started spinning on launches (bought tires summer 2017). Lots of road noise, but doesn't bother me. I bought my car with those tires and bought them again. I have nothing to compare them. That being said... I would give them an 8/10.
They are comparable to the continental road attack 3 , but they are cheaper and last longer , road attack is supposed to be more sticky , but that extra stickyness come in handy only if you have a bike that's significantly stronger than the SV imo.
Continental DWS, best tire for the money in my opinion
I’ve put Weathergrips on three vehicles, and I’ll continue to put them on vehicles if I have to. Phenomenal winter performance (in Southern Ontario) and absolutely brilliant in the wet. Zero hydroplaning. In the summer, I air them up a few pounds over the car manufacturer spec and they respond quite nicely.
So far I think the continentals transition response actually matches MINIs personality better, despite it having lower absolutely grip.
I’m rocking Conti PureContact LS’s on my 14 hatchback and they’ve been awesome
Not a Subaru owner :( but I run Firestones xt destination on my yoda and truck. I’ve had Toyo open country’s and wild peaks on my truck and I honestly like the Firestone’s better for everyday use light off roading and styling.
Mines a daily driver and I run continentals for snow and heavy rain. The only way your slipping with them is if your trying to.
Michelin MXV4 to Continental DWS
DWS superior in everyway except getting bubbles. It would bubble at every pothole. Went to Michelin Premier A/S it was a downgrade in everything except bubbling still better than MXV4
I had a set of Conti DWS tires that always vibrated -- at least 2 of them. I ended up replacing them all within 5K miles because two of the tires were shredded in a Home Depot parking lot -- they left a bunch of sharp metal on the ground in the back of their lot and, classic my luck, I found it. They ended up paying for new tires under their insurance but because it was a Subaru, I argued I needed to replace all 4 tires. Anyway, the new tires... no vibration anymore. It's one of the best unfortunate accidents I had, haha.
