Tires Continental or Firestone
Continental > Kumho > Road Hugger > Sentury
I’ve only got a focus st but my firestone fire hawk indy500s have been really nice to me. Not 200tw so they’ll last longer but lots of grip and not terribly expensive
Thanks for all the advice guys, went ahead and ordered the Continental ECS 02s, fingers crossed I’m happy with them. My biggest issue with my RS4s is that it takes about 2 runs on my favorite backroad to get enough heat in them to really stick and I don’t push my car on public roads like I used to. If I get the added benefit of making my car more daily-able that’s not a bad thing either.
Continental or bust.
I typically get the Continental dws 606+ or whatever it's called. They ride and handle as well as the Michelin Pilot Sport all seasons.
The continental ecs02 is in my opinion a better tire than the ps4s having had both on the same car and is cheaper
I've really enjoyed my Firestone Indy 500s. Plenty of grip and they give confidence in the rain.
If you need want all seasons, the Continental extreme contact dws06+ are great in dry and wet conditions. And much quieter than the PS4
Firestone destination le3 is decent and cheap tire there, a lot of sizes. Is the tire amazing? Fuck no, but has great wet traction, low rolling resistance, and through the roof treadwear.
But having watched DWS regularly chunk badly under autox runs, i wouldn't expect much to be left of those tires at the end of the event. The compound is not designed to handle higher temps.
