Tires Continental or Uniroyal
I’ve had these tires on my Subaru for the past five years and they’ve been great. 60k on them and still some life left.
You could save some money and have better handling by choosing something that's not run flat. I use Continental Extreme Contact tires (\~$947 installed with no alignment at Les Schwab, and yes I could have gotten them cheaper elsewhere but LS gives out credit like it's free candy) and I love them so far...
Conti's DH tires are just the best. Its almost concerning how much grip I have compared to similar maxxis tires.
The current DH Conti line is the best tire out there right now. But holy crap, is it hard to get on rims.
As a Maxxis rider who hasn't tried Michy but has tried Conti... Conti are the best tires I've ever run so far. And I liked the Maxxis overall. It's hard to imagine a tire better than these Contis.
My car had tires from 2015, so I swapped all the tires for a set of new Conti ECS. 02s which has been great.
I have the ProContact RXs on my MS LR. They were excellent in dry, wet and snow . I've read htat they get worse in really cold weather, but they were fine up to around -5-10 degrees celsius and 10-15cm snow atop Donner Pass in Tahoe. Did not need chains.
I run the DSW06 Plus year around even on my race car. They're much better than the ProContact but they will not last as long. They also are a bit louder but pretty dang grippy even in severe weather.
GuYs I have had a great experience with continental and I recommend they should be higher on this list.
The road noise is excruciatingly brain fuckingly loud
the procontact rx are pure garbage in snow. had to dig out the car when we first got it. if you need snow tires, swap them now.
