Heard great things about the Michelin Pilot, I personally went with Continental ExtrmeContact DWS06+ and vast improvement on ‘19 GLI.
I personally have gotten over 90k on a set of 4. I would’ve gotten more but I really like driving the family around safely! I had almost 1/8 of an inch before the tread wear indicators were visibly there. But the safety letter near the outer wall was almost gone.
I replaced my Ecopia’s with Continental CrossContact LX25 and loved them! They were quiet, wore slowly, great in all conditions (especially rain, snow, and ice)
I tried driving my 2022 on stock tires for a couple days in a Wisconsin winter and the car felt like it was on hockey pucks. If you can afford to do winter tires and summer tires, do it. Bridgestone Blizzak WS90’s and Michelin Ice-X’s are amazing tires in winter. If you want to do all seasons, I recommend Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 2’s or Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4’s for a more performance-oriented tire or Michelin CrossClimate2 tires for the best all-weather performance.
I had Continental 5000s on my bike at 28 mm, and I switched to 32s when the 28s got old after about 3000 or 4000 miles. I love the 32s.
I should add: they seem as fast and are very comfortable.
You can have max comfort, control, or max speed, but not all three. I’ve run conti GPS both 32(tubeless) and 28 (tubes) and prefer the 32s. The speed difference if any is negligible, but I definitely notice a difference in comfort and grip.
I am about a week in on these new tires and they feel much smoother than the Michelins did. Not as rough over bumps and potholes, and less road noise.
Eventually I got a set of Continental Kryptotal Fr/Re in 2.4" trail casing and endurance compound, and I haven't looked back since. The knobs are massive, and yet they roll super fast and grip super well. They perform so well in every metric that it just doesn't make sense, but I'll take it!
I prefer the gp 4 seasons, found the gp5k wore out very fast.
No. Continental made terrible tires in IMSA. Michelin came in this year and records were set at every single track in nearly every class.
