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 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.
Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires are great in dry & rain.
I’m at 36k with lots of tread left on the stock Continental tires.
I personally like the S4s but don't love them. They feel numb to me compared to say a continental sport contact 7.
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.
