Tires Continental or NANKANG
Same here. I’ve gone back to the Conti’s on my R after running the AS4’s. Outstanding all-around tire.
Never had a bubble on my DWS. Had several on my Michelins.
I've owned AS3's, AS3+, and PSAS4's. I've also owned DWS06 and DWS06+. I am partial to the DWS. I like a healthy 50/50 performance/comfort blend. DWS are that.
Nankang NS2-R is best bang for buck track tyre hands down.
It’s marginally slower than most other semi-slicks, but it will last longer, it will be faster than any premium road tyre on track.
DWS06plus are wonderful: quieter than expected with excellent grip and ride. I have 25k on mine with absolutely nothing but praise--Maine winter snow and summer downpours are non issues.
I've had the Continentals on my '24 GLI since April or so, quiet, great traction, good handling.
I have a 2019 Golf R modded to the gills and run stock 19" VW rims with Conti Extreme Contact Sport Max Performance Summers and 17" Oz Racing rims with Conti Extreme Contact DWS06 Plus for cooler months. I have also run the DWS06 on my daily drive a 2015 Lexus CT200h all year around.
I have had great results with Continental Extreme contacts DWS 06 plus, and earlier versions, I have had more than 10 complete sets of 4 over the years on all my many VW's. Fantastic in rain, and great in all other conditions...great handling solid feel. Long tread life for a really high traction rating.
I’ve seen mixed reviews of them. With some saying they aren’t great in the wet(acceptable but lacking when compared to others), other saying they wear really quickly.
My buddy had a set of them a long time ago, lasted forever but zero grip, like ice skating in the rain.
