Tires Continental or Kumho
I've put DWS06 on my past three vehicles from my daily, to a beater, and now my Z. Best all season performance tire you can get if being able to drive under 40° while having summer performance in the warmer months is what you're looking for. The tread wear is way better than some of the stickier tires out there too and I've found on a stock Z, these tires do hold their own. Can't praise them enough and definitely worth every penny extra.
I have those Continental tires. I like them, but I might not be the best tester. I do spirited drives on the weekends. They're good on turns but I recently started spinning on launches (bought tires summer 2017). Lots of road noise, but doesn't bother me. I bought my car with those tires and bought them again. I have nothing to compare them. That being said... I would give them an 8/10.
V730 is only other tire that’s cheap and works well. My personal experience on them is on a Miata, I was shocked how good they worked.
Go with the Kumho V730. They are the cheapest tire per corner, wear VERY well (about 100 runs before they cord…WITHOUT flipping). They are exactly what you need for a low-camber GS car.
They are comparable to the continental road attack 3 , but they are cheaper and last longer , road attack is supposed to be more sticky , but that extra stickyness come in handy only if you have a bike that's significantly stronger than the SV imo.
Continental DWS, best tire for the money in my opinion
So far I think the continentals transition response actually matches MINIs personality better, despite it having lower absolutely grip.
I’m rocking Conti PureContact LS’s on my 14 hatchback and they’ve been awesome
I have Conti-Extreme Contact DWS06's on her from fall-spring (right now I have summers on.) today the temps were at around 57* and they were most certainly squirrely until they warmed up. They are a good overall tire but they will break loose (both all season and summer) if you have enough HP. they're a good all season tire. but I wouldn't push them to the limits. they are predictable also and I've pushed them in the corners with satisfactory handling.
This weekend I had to pay tire discounters to remove the foam from all 4 of my tires because it was coming off and causing unbalanced tires. These tires aren’t good.
