Tires Hankook or Continental
Get you a set of Continental Viking Grip tires. Those things are freaking magic.
DWS06 is a really good tire and comes in a couple diff tread compounds so you can choose less performance for longer life. I’ve owned these tires on two different vehicles and the longevity was very good as was the snow traction for an all season tire.
Continental extreme contact DWS06 on an Audi A5 I recently changed them from Bridgestone potenza s001. The Bridgestones were runflats and the new continentals are so much quieter and smoother and feel more grippy.
I run continental dws6 on my wife's mini.
Good choice. Continental ExtremeContacts are my favorite A/S tires. Even when compared to the Pilot Sport A/S 4.
I love my Seigla with Conti Race King 2.2 but there’s no doubt that it’s slower on the road than someone riding 40 mm tires.
My Benz\u2019s all run Continental DWS 06+ and stay at the house if roads are too bad.
I drove all last winter with the standard 18” Hankook AS tires that came with my Model 3 LR. Worked fine.
Oh heck no to the Conti's unless you like a super soft sidewall that likes to bubble when it passes by a pothole let alone hits one. I don't get the fascination with them other than the price. I ran them on my old GLI and they were neither good in the rain/cold nor really all the special in the dry.
The absolute worst tires I've ever owned. Townfair did a bait and switch on me and offered a "discount" for my trouble. I got like 28k out of them, straight trash.
