1. Continental Control Contact Sport SRS+
2. Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06+
These were the two options I considered and ended up getting the first one at Discount Tire. It was the cheapest option. I just got em last month.
I’ve put about 15,000 miles on a set of these. They’ve been great. Grip is great for winter tires and did well in some snow. The tread still looks great after 15k miles too, so should last you a long time.
Got Windtrac Pro+ on my Elantra N for the winter. Drove to and from Canada over the weekend, 1000mi round trip, through snow and sleet. Have nothing but positive things to say about these tires! They handle wonderfully in harsher conditions and really help with road noise and pot hole absorption.
I just got all 4 replaced to UC6.
I've only driven on them for 30 miles but holy crap are these things amazing. These winters grip better in the cold than the crappy Firestone summers my car came on grip the warm. I'm able to launch a 0-60 with minimal wheel spin and without chirping the tires on the 1-2 shift. These are also softer and quieter than any Blizzaks or X-Ice Snows I've had. They're soft and squishy and compliant. They give a great ride and still retain some steering feedback.
Continental ExtremeContact DWS06+ if you a real hustler and got that pape right
My current set are Vredestein Hyoertrac All Season Performance Tirea. We had quite a bit of snow last year and I was surprised at how well they worked.
So, just drove them through the snow. I previously had cross climate 2 on the car and I liked them because they made the car feel unstoppable in snow and rain. But with that came an awful noisy and hard ride. The continentals do everything the Michelin does but BETTER at the trade off of snow traction… About 2 inches of snow this morning and I’ll say this. They get the job done.
I’ve always ran the Conti DWS06 all seasons, probably 8 different sets of them on numerous types of vehicles. I love the tires when they are new (dry, wet and snow) until about 1/3 thread… then they become noisy imo.
I had these tires before and they do wear fast. If you run them in the 30s, they will flat spot easy and wear the shoulders. I'd not recommend these tires.
