Tires Continental or FULDA
Continental Extreme Contacts DWS plus 06 EXCEL in wet performance...It's ones I've probably had over 10 sets of 4 on different VW's over the decades, 17+ VW lots of miles, lots of driving previously. Current 2019 Golf rrrrrr is Conti Extreme DWS, superb stuff.
Continental truecontact tour. There's a newer version but as I understand it it's essentially the same tire. Much better handling in the rain. They were slightly noisy at first but I don't notice it anymore, that was probably just from the breakin period.
I swapped wheels for 16's and I think my fuel efficiency overall is about the same as before. City fuel economy may be slightly better because of lower wheel weight, highway economy slightly worse due to drag from less aero rims. But I'm not sure if there's really any difference.
Continental CrossContact LX25 (I bought these) offered good snow/ice and wet performance.
Na avtu sem dobil continental celoletne pa so mi goodyearke boljse, so bile pa tud tiste dobre (drugih nisem probal, sta pa ti dve konstantno najboljsi na testih).
Imam Fulda celoletne in so ok, sedaj 2 leti. Ne vozim na limitu tako da ne vidim neke bistvene razlike
Continental ExtremeContact lasts well
My Car ( Honda City 4th Gen 2022) came with Goodyear Assurance 175 65 15 they lasted for 30K km from those, switched to Continental UC6 195 60 R15. Most of my driving are on good roads and highways , did Delhi to Ahmedabad post upgrade, really loved the ride comfort and how overall tyre noise got reduced, also car started gliding over small potholes and bumps effortlessly. I was also considering Yokohama Blue Earth GT but couldn\u2019t find it easily in the size I required.
My Polo came with Apollo, worked okay and lasted till 35k. Replaced them with continental uc6 and man it makes alot of difference, be it noise, comfort or grip. Been using for last 15k and looks almost new without a single puncture.
Installed 20" Continental Extreme Contact DWS06+
Improved ride and noise but not handling. More lean left and right.
I had this issue with four new Continental PureContacts almost two years ago. I had one blow out the side wall from a small pothole. Had it replaced and that one got a bubble in the sidewall. Had that one replaced and that one and another original got a bubble. No potholes hit, correct psi, etc. DT replaced them all with Michelin Defenders. I've hit some bad pot holes in Dallas highways and they have held up strong. Apparently Continental has had issues with sidewalls being weak due to cure time. It's unfortunate because they were so quiet, great traction in the rain and comfortable. I don't think I'd risk going with Continental again.
