Tires Continental or KENDA
I'm very happy with the Continental Viking Contact 7 snow tires, they are surprisingly quiet on dry roads.
Continental Extreme Contact Sport 02s are a bargain for a flagship summer tire that's excellent in the rain. I have them on my Si and run them daily and for autocross. While not as as sticky as a 200TW summer tire, they are really great in dry or wet conditions, and reasonably priced. I also had DWS06+ on my previous daily, a 2013 328i, and I liked those too.
I think a good tire is [Continental Tour] with a skin wall. It's made for Dynamo and includes a light safety belt.
I use it on my old bikes.
I had Continental DWS 06+ on my 2023 BRZ with a different wheelset and was extremely happy with them. I specifically tested them for grip in the wet and they were way better than the summer performance Michelin those cars come with as standard.
I went from the stock Firestone Destination M/T on my Willys Sport to the Continental TerrainContact A/T and they’re fantastic. My job changed and I have to highway drive about 100 miles round trip everyday. It was a huge difference. Quiet, great ride (for a Gladiator) and my mpg improved, I regularly get 22-23 on the highway with occasional 24-25 vs the sub 20 on the M/Ts. I can’t speak to the off-road element on these, I haven’t had an opportunity. Give them a look.
I bought Continental DWS06+, Honestly way too much tire for the car but I can go flat out around pretty much any wide corner and Ive developed a bad habit of braking too late because my tires are grippier than your mom.
I'm based in Toronto, Canada, and I have two sets of wheels for my 2024 GTI. The summer set consists of 17 inch wheels with Conti Extreme Contact II tires. These are pure summer tires, very quiet and excellent traction.
Honestly man if you're looking for fun cheep tires, the Kenda 200utqg is available in your size its a good bet. It definitely slower than top dogs but it preforms well. Big plus on the kenda is they don't get destroyed by high Temps and have a long life. Plus if you run them on the street as well they do well in rain
Fuck the Maxxis Taxxes. I'm still waiting on a pair of Continental Kryptotal F's for $42 each from Jenson.
I had continental on mine from the factory. They were also grossly over inflated. Despite adjusting the pressure they wore out in 13k
