I’ve ran both the Continentals and Yokohamas. General is owned by continental and make mid tier tires(continental would high tier in this case)
For your tire size, I’d take continental. The DWS06 is an amazing tire and well worth the price. Ran it on my 2017 Focus ST all winter long in the Portland area and they handled great!
Currently have them on my 2006 Acura TSX in south Cali and same thing. Good ride comfort, handling, and grippy around the corners.
Tire upgrade is the single best purchase you can make for this car. Continental DWS 06 tires truly transformed the driving experience.
got the Continental DWS06plus, so far they’ve been exceptional in the wet weather. Also, quieter than the uniroyal tiger paws.
The DWS06 is the second best on the market, but it’s probably not worth 75% more than the best in the budget category (the kumho), especially on a mazda3
The dws06 is one of the best tires on the market.
I am now on a set of continental for the winter. (And they run better than the all season khumo, go figure), but I'll look for those hankook next spring!
And they fit great, just like hawkbyte and Firebyte said they would
I live in the northeast and have used the dws and the pilot sports over the years. It’s been rather mild here lately the last few years but I never had a problem with getting around in either of those tires.
I use Gatorskin clincher on my commuter bike. They are very durable, with little wear marks after 2 years of use. But they aren’t light and fast like GP5000s. If you are a roadie, then I wouldn’t recommend Gatorskins for sport rides.
Very durable but the only crashes I've had in the wet have been with them fitted. Personally won't be using them anymore.
