I drive continentals also in tx. Perfect in rain even when completely bald.
I had installed Continental for my front tyres. There was a remarkable difference in the how the car drove and how it gripped.
I always recommend the continental DWS-06. Amazing tire. Excellent wet weather grip.
I put some NITTO RECON grapplers on and i’m loving them, 2+ (almost 3) years… doesn’t kill the range as bad as others but still has a semi aggressive look, I do mix street and highway driving, not too loud either
I’ve had the Recon Grapplers on mine for about 6 months now. Great tire!
UC6 is by far the best I’ve experienced when compared to Michelin XM1 , CEAT and JKTyres, Continentals are just smooth throughout
Yeh the UC6 is amazing. My car came with ceat securadrive. It got a sidewall bubble at 22k. Changed to UC6 and the change was mind-blowing. Just yesterday I was driving in the rain at 60-70 not breaking a sweat. Also got turtle wax clearvue rain coating. Can't recommend these enough. Tried to get conti for WagonR and Ignis as well but weren't in stock at my preferred shop, so went with Bridgestone sturdo, they're also good for the price.
The Brezza came with Apollo Alnac 4G tires from the factory. Apollo's were a good set of tires; they had decent grip, road noise wasn't bad, and even at 49,000 kilometers, they had about 5,000 kilometers left. Anyway, I decided to change them since I could see hairline cracks appearing, plus monsoon season here in Kerala means it's better to have a good pair of tires.
Long story short, after extensive research, I got Continental UC6 215/60-16 tires. I paid a total of 34,800 rupees, including four tires, balancing, alignment, and valves. The tires were 8,150 rupees each. I didn't feel a lot of difference in the first 150 kilometers, but after that, I noticed some major differences compared to the Apollos.
* Road trip: These tires stick to the road like leeches. Wet grip is unbelievably good. You can take a turn at 90 kmph on wet highways, and the car won't break a sweat. I never had that kind of confidence before.
* Braking: Stopping power has improved significantly. Both wet and dry grip are excellent.
* Ride quality: Improved by leaps and bounds. Small imperfections on the road are dismissed. Expansion joints on the highways are hardly felt in the cabin.
* Road noise : These tires are silent. At 120 kmph, all you hear is wind and engine noise. 0 noise from the tires. Apollo's use to get loud post 90kmph.
If you are looking for a tire change, i highly recommend Continentals. You would hardly pay 10-15% more then Indian tires but the benefits are significant .
Not sure what size you are planning or what platform, but I'll give you Nitto feedback FWIW.
17' cummins 35-12.50-18's .It will pick up rocks and throw them a lot. Maybe have 20-25k and are less than half tread.
Hilarious because I did for the first time last year with the same tires that came on your areton that came on my golf sportwagen. Absolute horrendous piles of ****. They are worse than the worst set of linglongs. They shouldn't even be approved for road use. switched to a set of Michelin CC2 and they are better in absolutely every metric by 250%. They are better in the snow than the contis were on dry pavement.
