Tires Continental or PHANTOM
DWS06 on all my cars. By far the longest lasting and best performing tire and cheaper than the competition.
My brother has dsw06s on his Focus RS. They're awesome tires but have a short lifespan. I got Conti PureContacts and haven't had a single complaint, they've never lost traction or hydroplaned (not for lack of trying), and are quiet except on perfectly smooth pavement.
I like my DWS06+ set. Not terrible in snow and pretty good in rain.
DWS06+ user here. Amazing tires, especially in the rain.
The stock kinergys are quite bad new and once they start approaching 1/2 life left, became honestly dangerous in the rain from my experience. I replaced them with Continental Extreme Contact DWS06+’s well before the tires were worn out and haven’t looked back. 100% worth it.
Also, I run Continental Race Kings in 29x2.2.
I’ve been very happy with the Continental TrueContacts on two different cars. Good tread life and performance.
Also I live in the Northeast, around Philly, so I needed something with decent all season traction. Conti has been great. And very good wear rating .
Ironman's are crap, and continentals are mid at best on most makes
Very durable but the only crashes I've had in the wet have been with them fitted. Personally won't be using them anymore.
