Tires Nexen or Continental
The premium contact 6 is a very good summer tire. Not the sportiest out there but overall grip in normal summer conditions is around best in this class.
Continental grand prix 4 season (Black edition) tires that contribute major to the speed and ride experience!
I would put that money into a good set of carbon aero bars, a good aero helmet, or some really nice tubeless tires gp5000, etc.
205/50-17 Continental WinterContact Si - awesome performance in the winter thus far. Couldn’t be happier...
Spend the money on a really good set of fronts. Nexen SUR04
I got a set of continental snows a couple years ago that gave been amazing.
Continental DWS06 are hands down my favorite all season tire. I have lived in PA, FL and NC and it's always my go to choice for an all season tire. Super quiet.. last forever and grippy.. what else can you ask for?
M3 Non Snow: BFGoodrich gForce Comp 2...M3 Snow: Continental WinterContact Si (very, very happy with these over years of being a Blizzak driver)...Wagon Non Snow: Continental ExtremeContact DWS (very happy so far)
I've sold a ton of Nexen tires and used them on all my loaner cars. I never buy the N5000's though. I stick to the Classe Premier line so CP641 and CP672 tires. I use them on my mother in law's Jetta and I have the Nexen Rodian HP on my Wife's MB R350. Decent tires. Not the best but for the price, they work very well.
These tires have 17k miles on them in the city and are completely useless now. It feels like I am driving in my Jeep offroad. The car literally pitches and rolls at low speeds; at highway speeds it vibrates badly.
