I left run flats and slapped on Continental ExtremeContact. They look great and ride amazing. Also I went wider and kept the thickness so it feels a lot more comfortable
Continental ExtremeContacts. Made a huge difference in traction, noise, and comfort. Even more of a point and shoot go kart now.
I live in the PNW, we don't get enough snow to warrant a whole set of tires (for me, anyways). I've been running the Continental dws06 Plus (and the prior non plus version) for years, they do exceptionally well in a couple inches of snow, even ice. I have cable chains for when it gets really bad.
Replaced my Geolandars with Conti ExtremeContacts and the ride and handling both improved.
I had the precursors to those viking contacts on my 17 forester and thought they were great.
I've run Hakkapeliittas, Blizzaks, and currently VikingContacts on my various Subarus. They've all been great but the VikingContacts have been my favorite of the 3.
I've had the Altimax in the past and they are totally fine. But the Vikings are really great. Between these two I would get the Contis unless you can get a killer deal on the Altimax
With a set of Continentals, I was pretty much able to drive with impunity, even the heaviest rain.
I test drove the R4P on a warm day. The tires were squeaky as heck. The compound is super hard. When I get my R4P, I'm gonna run the stock tires until they wear out.
Kenda sucks. Immediately replace for Continental. Super sports last for at least 6 months pf daily use.
