Tires Continental or WEST LAKE
ExtremeContact Sport tires are a great dual duty street performance/track tire. I did a bunch of track days on them with my R56 and they always performed great.
defo recommend continental cc7 for your use case, arguably the best in its class for value, performance and comfort !
CC7 is a safe bet. Can get under rm250 per tyre in continential official shopee store. I also use CC7 for my city gm6. Been almost 2 years and tyre still provides the same level of comfort
Personally I have no problem with them. I ALWAYS get Continentals on my car (2015 Honda Pilot) and they are nice and grippy and last forever.
Michelin or Continental are my favorite brands for cars. I'm on my third set of Extreme Contact DWS. Average 50k a set. Good balance of grip and mileage.
The winter sw606 are actually really good winter tires. Somebody mentioned Florida so maybe that's where you are, but I'm in canada and I'm on my third set of westlake winter tires lol they're boss for snow.
Continental ECF. They're 200's but more endurance focused. Not a fast tire but can stay consistent through a whole HPDE session. Really good performance in the rain, somehow they move a bunch of water. Long lasting as well... many heat cycles.
Too bad you don't have 16s, then you could buy the Continental DWSs(205/50/16s on mine) for the ultimate upgrade in rainy day tire. I spent 45 minutes on Saturday chucking my car actively trying to get it to slip and slide in the rain on mountain road bends and it just wouldn't let go.
Maybe I just got lucky. I used to always get Michelin's, but my CC came with Conti (Pro Contact I think), so went for them again, and then picked another Conti that is a little sportier (not DWS06, just PureContact LS), and they have been OK. Steering feel hasn't been as good as with Michelin, but I did not experience any problems.
Every time this is question is posted, I have the same answer: Gatorskins suck, by the Conti 4 seasons. Yes gator skins are tough, but they also feel like they're made of soap when cornering in the wet. 4 Seasons are *so* much more supple.
