Tires Continental or Sailun
I went from the stock Firestone Destination M/T on my Willys Sport to the Continental TerrainContact A/T and they’re fantastic. My job changed and I have to highway drive about 100 miles round trip everyday. It was a huge difference. Quiet, great ride (for a Gladiator) and my mpg improved, I regularly get 22-23 on the highway with occasional 24-25 vs the sub 20 on the M/Ts. I can’t speak to the off-road element on these, I haven’t had an opportunity. Give them a look.
I bought Continental DWS06+, Honestly way too much tire for the car but I can go flat out around pretty much any wide corner and Ive developed a bad habit of braking too late because my tires are grippier than your mom.
I'm based in Toronto, Canada, and I have two sets of wheels for my 2024 GTI. The summer set consists of 17 inch wheels with Conti Extreme Contact II tires. These are pure summer tires, very quiet and excellent traction.
I have them on my '17 Bolt. They are definitely quieter than the previous tires. They seem to be holding up well, and I love hearing the tires chirp for traction when flogging it a 30 MPH!
Sailun tires are pretty good in general for being off brand. My Jetta had them when I bought it — I put about 45k miles on them before they wore out. And during that time I hit a pothole hard enough to bend the wheel — but the tire survived.
I was skeptical at first because they were so cheap. But after I did a cross-Canada trip on them I was so impressed by them. They survived nasty potholes. I didn't notice any range loss. Very quiet as well. The grip in wet conditions were far better.
I have continental tires after the OEMs needed replacement-
Very happy with them - mileage etc no change that I can see - quieter also
Just got a set. Much quieter than stock conti 19 with 32k on em. My wife’s jaw dropped when she heard the new tire road noise levels difference. Very smooth not overly rigid at all. Would gladly buy again. Don’t hesitate
Initial impressions after 50 miles. The ride quality isn’t noticeable different than the OEM tires. I THINK they might have a tiny bit more noise. Driving this weekend I can first say the new tires are a smoother and quieter ride. I can say for sure that there tires are not significantly better or worse than the OEM tires.
Mine looked the same and were also overinflated at delivery. One of my tires didn't last 1000 miles, it developed a tear on the side.
