Tires Continental or TIGAR
Viking Contact 7’s are fantastic tires, I bought mine used and still got 5 winters from them. They’re quiet, smooth, and have excellent grip, I can’t recommend them enough.
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 had particularly bad luck with Continentals on a couple of cars. Buddy (who had a similar experience) and I came up with a comparison: take one of those nice Staedler erasers and draaaag it on pavement, you won't go 50' before your knuckles get road rash. I'm a big Michelin fan, never had any trouble with those on any of my cars.
