I was down to Michelin pilot sport vs continental extreme contact and went with continental because there were a lot of reviews saying that the michelins wore out too fast. The continental tires have been the best I've ever had. .
For what it’s worth, I run Continental ExtremeContact Sports. They’re almost as good as the PS4’s for a little less money.
Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s. Don't think you can beat the price ($150/tire installed when I got them) and they do great in rain. I've put 40k mi on mine and they have probably got 20k more in them.
Continental Extremecontacts DWS06+, outstanding set of tires.
Especially in the rain, the amount of grip you'll still have is amazing
I've had an '18 GT for a few years now, and I am just now on my second set of Conti ExtremeContact DWS06. They've served me well driving up to Big Bear for snowboarding, and ripping on Angeles Crest in the summer. I have also NOT been kind to them (left turns from a stop I just can't help myself). 10/10 would recommend them for an all around grippy and safety tire.
I run continental Extreme Contacts DWS on mine. They’re amazing and handle snow well too
Conti Viking 7 have been best of the three in my opinion. Excllent in winter and I am even running 19 inch. I took my car out for a Sept warm wknd (was forced to) and even in those conditions I had no idea I was rolling on winters. If I had done that in my Blizzaks, you would have felt the softness. Based on their feel and winter performance, I won’t be looking at other winter tires again.
Firestone Indy 500 tire? What level are you running at and on what car? What is your psi? It's a great novice (to intermediate-ish)tire, but you have to know when to back off. Run them too hot and they'll get a little greasy feeling. Although I can't see that happening after 1 lap.
I run continental extremecontact dws 06+ on my golf. They’re the quietest tire I’ve found for the golf. The tires are ok. Not sport tires but have decent grip. Sidewall is a little soft.
Just this morning I changed out the Conti TX's for Conti DWS06's. Not something I wanted to do just after buying a brand new car, but already had a bubble on one tire. Didn't feel comfortable just replacing it. I replaced all 5, including the spare.
