I run the Continental DWS06+ on my Mustang and have been very happy with them. They're not quite as sharp as the Michelin Pilot AS3 that they replaced, but that's ok for my daily driver. Adding 2 psi over the factory recommended pressures helped firm up the steering response and ride enough to keep me happy.
Continental DSW Extreme Contact is the best all season tire I have out on any of my cars. Dry/wet/snow…just all around an impressive tire.
I just changed to gp5k 30mm with tubiltos
Noticeably faster. Also went from 65 psi with 32 mm to 80 on the new 30s. And the tires let u know when the road surface is poor.
Just put these Conti Crosscontact LX25 on my Hyundai Sante Fe. So much better than the Kumho Crugen previously on that wore out very quickly (got 25,000 rotated every 7500 miles) and not quiet on the road. Yes the $110 rebate did help with the decision. Put on around 800 miles and pretty happy with them. Like other Conti, quiet on the road. There's less road feeling but for a family car, fine for my wife.
I currently have Firestone LE3's on my 14 Explorer. They have a little over 26k miles on them. 255/50/20's for $930 mounted/balanced back in 2021. Overall pretty good tires, especially for the money. Smooth, good traction in the dry/wet and pretty good in the snow. They did seem to get louder fairly quickly, but I don't think they've really gotten any worse over the last 15k miles. Wet roads seem to exacerbate the noise. Last time I looked at them (few k miles ago), they were wearing really well. I can't say I'd buy them again yet, but if they get us another 26k miles without getting significantly louder, they (or their successor) would be on the list. In the past I had OE Hankooks (good dry/wet, excellent life, absolutely terrible in the snow) and Michelin Premier LTX (good in all conditions, short life, overpriced for what they were).
I went with Continental PureContact LS. All of my looking and reading and personal experience and prices... this is what seemed best to me.
New tires are Continental CrossContact LX25 - researched with my very loyal and reliable mechanic. Fingers crossed these wear better.
I’m using this as my daily and it sees no track time, so I like to keep it fun, while also not making my wallet cry. DCC: 2 right from comfort Drivetrain: Eco Engine sound: Sport ACC: Eco Steering: Sport
I’m switching back to Avid Ascends or Continental Trucontacts here before winter.
The Version 1 of the Conti I had on my Z06 for a while and wasn't impressed, got greasy when hot which apparently is better now and slightly sharper turn in over the PS4S.
