Vikingcontact 7 — VERY good in snow and ice. Good in dry and wet.
Have had them since Friday and haven’t had any bad weather yet, but there is only just the slightest difference in dry handling performance from the stock tires. For me, a non-professional driver not driving on a track, it’s only just _barely_ noticeable.
Continental terrain contacts performed amazingly on my vw Touareg. Took them to Moab regularly and lived in summit county Colorado. So they saw plenty of slick rock and snow. Not the best cold weather tire, but one of the best all terrains in cold weather. Way better winter performance than my ko2s.
I'm a big fan of my Continental Terrain Contact A/T. They don't look aggressive as KO2s or Falkens, but they perform well off-road, wet conditions, and are quiet on the road. Have not tested them in icy conditions.
High Desert Nevada. Continental have gotten me through the big storms we get and numerous icy conditions. With the traction control on the Velos, they have worked great.
Continental SRS+ drive amazing in the rain, good grip around corners and ride quality is great
On our 07 wagon we did SPT wagon pink springs on KYBs, 16” Sparco Terra’s with Continental DWS tires. Full set of Group N bushings, Cobb intake/acessport/cat back.
IME/FWIW front to back & side to side is fine w/ the DWS06+ although never really had too much of a difference in wear side to side over many sets of them on several vehicles. Front to back has been the biggest difference in wear on my Mk 6, 8.5V S3, Alltrack, & Mk 7.5.
I'm in Ohio, and I've been driving with the Continental DSW06 for 3 years. They seem to wear quickly, though.
I have 30k on my 22 hatch and while they still have tread depth the compound has deteriorated so badly that they understeer in the cold at low speed.
