Tires Hankook or Continental
I switched to 5000's a while back and haven't regretted it. They definitely roll faster and corner better.
I run Conti gp 5000 AS TR and do like them a lot. They have quite allright puncture protection and run very good while still having very good grip even in wet conditions
They are actually a really solid tire in this category, not as good as the Continentals which are some of the best in their category of UHP all-season tires, but they come pretty close...
Gonna go with GP5Ks. Best optimization of any tire out there IMHO.
Hankook ion evo's are a bit quieter than the Yokohama I had before, but have same efficiency
I put Hankook Ion Evos on my M3P with the 20" wheels. They were quieter than the pirelli summer tires buy about 2-3 dbs. When I put them on at 29,000 miles my lifetime energy use was 265. After 5,000 miles use is at 240.
I replaced my OEMs with Conti Extreme Contacts DSW06s and I find them quieter than the pricier EV tires. Plus they stick like glue. Seriously can’t get a squeak out of them.
Continental extreme contact all season. Had them on my old car(civic type r).They were great! They are great on this car too! It’s faster, corners better, and doesn’t slide in rain.
I found a wood screw neatly inserted into the sidewall so it couldn't be patched. $400 for a new Continental.
Only experience with OE Hancocks was on a VW Passat. Took delivery on new car and drove home from the dealer in a snow storm and it was the most severe case of white knuckle syndrome ever. The car was absolutely dangerous and scary.
