Tires MICHELIN or Continental
I previously had the Michelin PS4S and the noise and ride were pretty good, noise was most noticeable on concrete roads. In December I changed to the Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 and they are quieter and ride better than the PS4S, ride quality is actually pretty damn nice in normal mode and almost luxury like in comfort.
Can’t go wrong with the Conti. We have the American version on both a 718 and GTI and work very well in dry/wet.
Kupio sam Continental Sport contact 7, pozadi mi idu 275/30/20 a napred 245/35/20, da mi je neko pricao da moze takva razlika da bude u voznji sa gumama ne bih mu verovao u zivotu, auto zalpljen za put, nema buke, po kisi brutalne....
Ja mám rád Continental a zimu. Fungujú celkom fajn. Chvíľu som mal zimné Bridgestone ale ničili sa príliš rychlo
Those Continental's are great tires! I went through 2 sets on my Passat. I always felt secure while driving.
Agree with others who point out that you can run anything but, since you're looking for upgrades, I can attest that the Continental Extremecontact DWS 06+ is an absolutely fantastic UHP all-season if you're not in a climate where you have dedicated summer and winter tires. I went to them straight after Michelin Pilot Sport 4S summer tires and I'm not going back to Michelins.
I've been running PS4S on my 6mt Mk8 GTI and have been pretty happy. Great balance of road/ rain performance and comfort, but still enough grip to have fun.
If you absolutely must use a dual duty tire, I had decent success with Michelin PS4s on my S3 in my first season.
That’s why less than a month after getting mine I ditched all those crappy Conti’s for a set of Michelin PS4 AS. Same tires I have on my Corvette. No blow outs but I did find when I got my car home after purchasing it one Conti had a bulge in it the dealership completely missed during the CPO inspection
I have the Michelin Defenders LTX M/S on mine. Those Duelers were crap and had to replace them at 35k miles.
