Tires Continental or Laufenn
I switched off of those to a set of Continental Vikingcontact 8 this year. I don't know if it's because my Xice were old or what but I find the contis to be about 50% (subjective, obviously) better than the michelins
This probably would never happen with some continental extreme contact sport 02\u2019s on there
My wife had continental extreme contacts on her civic, they were a little expensive but worth ever penny. I used to take that shit box skiing on powder days, they are good tires!
Discount Tire. I got Laufenn G-Fit that I've been really pleased with. They actually sold my tires to somebody else by accident so I had to come back after 2 days to have them installed and they waved all of the install fees. So I got a full set of tires with warranty for $385 including tax and fees.
I also live in the PNW and have Continental DWS06+ and they are incredible in the rain and light snow.
Been using VikingContact 7s and 8s now for a bit and been very happy with them.
Been using continental viking contact 7, no issues. Obviously the new 8s would be even better.
I swear by Conti Viking Contact (7 or 8) and Bridgestone Blizzaks. I’m in Canada and trust me those rip through the snow
Went with the DWS 6+ but they are noisy. Very grippy here in Vancouver though. I have doubts about them in the snow though.
I previously had on the coveted Conti DWS 06+ and they sucked. Here’s what I did not like about them. The continental did not have the extra little bead around the rim to protect it. The front tires always look like they were under inflated, even though they were at the correct pressure and there was always a ring of dirt around the sidewalk where it looked like it was basically running on the side sidewalk half the time through turns with the flexing. The continental tires only lasted about 22,000 miles.
