Tires Continental or Goodyear
My wife got almost 60k miles out of her continental cross contact tires on her 2021 Honda pilot. I like Michelin tires but was really impressed with the continentals. I bought the updated version which are the LX25’s. I live in Nebraska and we get all the seasons. Might be worth a look
After a lot of research i went with Goodyear and they are very good.
I used to have the F1 supersport and they were insanely good on track. Brilliant on the road too. Great value.
I have the stock Conti EcoContact6 and they’re pretty good even in the wet. It takes deliberately poor driving to even come close to breaking the back end loose.
Mines too has the stock contis, and you can go full send in the wet and between the tyre and traction control, no wheel spin (unless you chase after it by turning etc)
I have a seal premium, live in a very wet tropical climate, drive in only sport mode, and with the stock continental's I find the car to be very sticky even in the wet it takes a deliberate movement to get the back end loose.
Went with the Continental DW06 since I had them on the GTI. Night and Day from the Summer Tires, much better for driving around town.
The SportContact 6 have been disappointing in a few areas: poor rolling resistance, high wear, and noticeable road noise. I’d like to improve on those aspects while keeping good wet grip. I don’t mind a bit less dry handling — the SportContact 6 are insanely good there, but I’m not tracking the car, so that level of performance isn’t really necessary for public roads.
I have the 20" F1s and am not a fan. They are not happy when not fully warmed up; can get squirrelly on hard acceleration and fast cornering and before PSM kicks in. I find them to perform relatively better for wet weather. They are noisy but doesn't bother me much.
I had a small air leak on my MYL passenger rear side with Continental stock tires and Costco would not repair them, only rotate.
