I’ve been running VikingContacts for my winter setup and don’t regret them at all. Have been great tires for my MK7 R in the midwest winter, especially with all the snow we got last year.
I recently swapped the Potenzas on my ‘24 IS350 F Sport to the DWS06+ and I love them a lot more than the Potenzas, way more grippier from my experience.
Eu am de 3 ani de zile pe una dintre masini, Continental All season Contact 2. Am facut drumuri la munte pe zapada, ploi de toamna si vara, mers in Austria, Grecia, Turcia la drum lung, rulate in București pe canicula si pot spune ca nu regret nicio clipa decizia luată. Nu este nicio diferență sesizabila intre un all season premium si o anvelopa dedicată de sezon.
Used to run the 7 which was incredible and the 8 is even better.
I love continentals. Had Apollo, Goodyear, Ceats and MRF and the Continental stood out the most. Amazing handling.
I have Continentals on my Nexon rn. They have already done 15k kms. Much better than the stock Bridgestones that I had. Noticeably less vibrations and noise. Zero punctures till date.
Are the Viking Contacts worth it? Yes. Are they the end-all-be-all for a minivan? No.
I used to have winter tires that were much much worse than continental all seasons tires.
My Continental ECS Sport lasted about 5 events. Not the most track oriented but fine for me. I didn’t really need new ones but the lack of camber was evident and they came out with the Sport 02
VW/Audi has been mounting these on some Audi SUV's at the factory. I went to two reputable tire stores, and they both corroborated the weakness of this specific tire; due to weak sidewall strength. They are like marshmallows. Any competent driver who has sporting blood can sense how poorly large vehicles handle with these model tires.
