On my Madone I am measurably faster on all my Strava segments on 30mm than 28mm GP5000s.
General tires are the best out in my opinion. Even though they are owned by Continental they are a separate entity that does their own thing. The past 5 years I think general is the best because of quality, balance well, good tread life, quiet, etc.
I would suggest 30 or even 32mm. My Emonda is set with RSL 51 + GP5000 30mm tubless. It's perfect!
Love the tires BTW. I did a ton of research and settled on these and couldn't be happier over the stock continentals. My kWh/mile has gone up a noticeable amount. Even with me blasting the AC.
Had a set put on yesterday and so far compared to the foam lined continentals I feel like they are quieter and no more "can't patch because of foam bs".
After some research, I decided to give the Contis another try. Except this time, I went with the Trail casing in the Endurance compound out back and Soft in the front (Kryptotal Fr and Re again). Took them out on the trails this morning and it was an entirely different experience from my first one with Contis. They were fast, light, and still had that great traction I remembered. To my surprise, even with the lighter casing, the sidewalls were still nice and supportive. I even hit some chunky rock gardens and they held their line perfectly without pinging the rim.
This post was made last year. I am now in a new vehicle, again with DWS06+ now my 3rd car with them and they are by far my favorite tires I've ever ran. They're perfect for a DD imo. Perfect balance between performance longevity comfort and road noise.
On my MK7.5, I\u2019m currently running CONTINENTAL EXTREME CONTACT DWS 06 PLUS and absolutely love them! They\u2019re probably the best tires I\u2019ve run on the 4 GTIs I\u2019ve owned over the years!!! \ud83d\udc4d\ud83c\udffe
I have a model 3 but was debating the pilot sports. I have continental pro contact rx and on smooth roads they are smooth and quiet but on not recently paved roads they can be bumpy and loud.
I have Continental tires on my 2024 and they sing on concrete like no other tire I’ve ever heard. I would never get them on purpose.
