Tires Continental or Goodyear
Recently got the continental extremecontact dws06 plus. Very happy with them. Softer ride and good all season traction. Great performance for everyday driving and some backroads on the weekend
I had to replace my PS4s at 15000 miles, the rears were toast. After a lot of research and asking fb group, also went with Continental Extreme Contact DSW06 and am very happy with them so far. I'd say just as grippy as the Michelins but all-season which I needed to change to plus tread wear warranty is good
Goodyear related: I remember the F1 dsg3's (IIRC) that were OE on the MK4 GLI 1.8t. being one of the best wet weather tires I had experienced up till that point.
I highly recommend swapping the tires out for GP5000s. I’m happy that I did it when I went to carbon wheels.
I had Extreme Contacts and loved them. I swapped my ContiProContact5s on my 24 S5 Sportback for Extreme Contact DWS06+ as I had them on my 17 Fusion Sport and absolutely loved them.
Blasted through a Salt Lake winter storm a few weeks ago with these. Were amazing on my S3 so I highly recommend. I'm very happy with the continentals though!
I’m on my second set on my Lexus GS350 and I love them. To me they’re just as quiet and grippy as the Michelin PS4S that came on the car but a little cheaper. I do think the continental wears a little faster but it’s almost negligible. They’re fantastic in the rain and dead quiet which were my main concerns.
I use Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 on my S4 and they are really good and comfortable tires. I switched from Pirellis because they were way too stiff. Great on smooth roads but shit on bumpy roads. In New England there are lots of bumpy roads...
It’s safe to drive, but you should replace them for some quality tires.
The tires are rated at 1 on the tire toughness scale. I forget what it’s called but they are super fragile, garbage tires. They also wear hilariously fast and handle poorly.
