Tires Nexen or Continental
I went from the stock Firestone Destination M/T on my Willys Sport to the Continental TerrainContact A/T and they’re fantastic. My job changed and I have to highway drive about 100 miles round trip everyday. It was a huge difference. Quiet, great ride (for a Gladiator) and my mpg improved, I regularly get 22-23 on the highway with occasional 24-25 vs the sub 20 on the M/Ts. I can’t speak to the off-road element on these, I haven’t had an opportunity. Give them a look.
I bought Continental DWS06+, Honestly way too much tire for the car but I can go flat out around pretty much any wide corner and Ive developed a bad habit of braking too late because my tires are grippier than your mom.
I'm based in Toronto, Canada, and I have two sets of wheels for my 2024 GTI. The summer set consists of 17 inch wheels with Conti Extreme Contact II tires. These are pure summer tires, very quiet and excellent traction.
Nexen is amazing.....I drove above 200kph many times without any issues.
I use Nexen Roadian RA8 tires on my Tahoe and love them. $130 a piece for 265/75r16. I get a lot of snow where I live and they haven't let me down.
I have continental tires after the OEMs needed replacement-
Very happy with them - mileage etc no change that I can see - quieter also
Just got a set. Much quieter than stock conti 19 with 32k on em. My wife’s jaw dropped when she heard the new tire road noise levels difference. Very smooth not overly rigid at all. Would gladly buy again. Don’t hesitate
I bought Continental Extreme Contacts because they were a little cheaper and aren't supposed to wear as quickly as the Michelins, and the difference is tenfold.
I've driven 65.000km and I'm through one set of Continental All Season Contact 1 and one set of Nexen.
The all season contact lasted for 35.000km the Nexen one for two summer.
At my 35K (mi) scheduled maintenance, I was told I had 2/32 left on the OEM Nexens.
