The OEM tire is extreamly good! The first batch of BYD seal comes with Continential SC7. Its performance is close to PS4 and better than PS4 on wet days. I strongly recommend it. Though it costs more and tread wear fast, still worth it!
I also run General Tires Grabber HTS60 for the Summer, as these were highly rated by Consumer Reports (which I use religiously), and I mostly pull an RV trailer (5,500 lbs) on the highway. They too have been great.
Same here. I’ve gone back to the Conti’s on my R after running the AS4’s. Outstanding all-around tire.
Never had a bubble on my DWS. Had several on my Michelins.
I've owned AS3's, AS3+, and PSAS4's. I've also owned DWS06 and DWS06+. I am partial to the DWS. I like a healthy 50/50 performance/comfort blend. DWS are that.
DWS06plus are wonderful: quieter than expected with excellent grip and ride. I have 25k on mine with absolutely nothing but praise--Maine winter snow and summer downpours are non issues.
I've had the Continentals on my '24 GLI since April or so, quiet, great traction, good handling.
I have a 2019 Golf R modded to the gills and run stock 19" VW rims with Conti Extreme Contact Sport Max Performance Summers and 17" Oz Racing rims with Conti Extreme Contact DWS06 Plus for cooler months. I have also run the DWS06 on my daily drive a 2015 Lexus CT200h all year around.
23k on my 11gen ST hatch, 2 shops have also recommended me new tires. With that being said it makes me feel better seeing other people explaining that they have gotten around the same mileage on their continental procontacs.
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.
