Tires NITTO or Continental
The stock kinergys are quite bad new and once they start approaching 1/2 life left, became honestly dangerous in the rain from my experience. I replaced them with Continental Extreme Contact DWS06+’s well before the tires were worn out and haven’t looked back. 100% worth it.
Also, I run Continental Race Kings in 29x2.2.
I’ve been very happy with the Continental TrueContacts on two different cars. Good tread life and performance.
Also I live in the Northeast, around Philly, so I needed something with decent all season traction. Conti has been great. And very good wear rating .
Dws 06+ bro. I praise them forever. Had them on my Elantra, our Mazda 3, and our Wrx
Continental DWS 06+ I have them on a Porsche Cayman and they are fantastic in all 4 seasons.
Znam jer na oba auta imam te ljetne i te zimske.
Continental CrossContact LX25 all day long. I've ran LTXs and those aforementioned GoodYear Comfort Drives and the Contis excel them in every aspect.
The Advan wheels on my miata came with dws06+. Was really happy with the performance but what annoyed me so much about them was the tapered profile and narrow tread. Wet performance wasn't a concern for that car so I replaced them with the firehawks in the same size. The tread is almost an inch wider and they dont look stretched on the wheels.
This is unfortunately common in my experience with Nitto. I ran Trail Grapplers that were cracked like that with still probably 2/3 tread left. Next set were Ridge Grapplers, they did the same at about 1/2 tread.
