I definitely noticed a smoother ride so far and I would argue a bit more traction. I’ve only had them on for a day so I’ll have to see how much range loss I’ll experience and if they perform better or worse when pushed. Plus I believe I have a quality replacement from the OEM that my MYP came with.
I bought a set of Continental Viking Contact 7s and had them mounted on a cheap set of rims from Tire Rack. Samaritan Tire swaps them for me each spring and fall and stores them for me in the off season. It's really easy and it's worth it for my own peace of mind.
Conti ecs 02 is the go to rain tire for many people from my understanding and they hold up well on track if it's dry. If you drive them hard they can get a little greasy after 20 minutes on track but Im on my second set and don't have plans to change it up for my third
Exteme contact sports are great especially in the wet.
Continental extreme contacts. They're just amazing on this car
I have the Sumitomo Encounter AT's on my frontier. Good reasonably priced tire.
I went with Continental IceContact XTRM studded Winter Tire
Bit noisy with the studs but they grip so good
I love my continental extreme contact sport 02.
I'd even recently done the timing belt and it had 2 sets of wheels with Continental tires.
I know this thread is almost a year old...But it was one of the first things to pop up in Google. I bought a Challenger with the Sumitomo all seasons. 245/45r20. They were terrible tires. I figured I try to get 2 years out of them and it didnt happen. They were manufactured in March 2023. Lasted 12,000 miles before one of them separated from the side wall in November 2024. I got a set of new tires at discount tire and they showed me that 2 of the other tires were starting exactly the same thing. Separating the tread from the side walls. All on the inside so I couldnt see it. The car shook over 75mph...They wouldnt hold air pressure...They were downright dangerous in winter conditions. They were very noisy and wouldnt grip even on a hot road surface.
