Conti 4 Season are my favorite. They have a good mix of durability, comfort, puncture resistance, and grip.
I'm using the Continental Sport 02 in 205/50/15, 3 season daily with autocross events. No complaints, plenty of grip dry or wet. Very confidence inspiring tire.
I'm out of Chicagoland (close enough to you) and I rock Continental control contact tires. Best thing in the world for all seasons in the snow. Great in our stupid rain too. You really feel nice and planted in them.
I may go with Continental once I need new tires.
I mean the Hankook ion as and Pirelli ev 2 are both more range but not 20 miles maybe 5-10. The Hankooks don't get more than 30k but has a good warranty and I'm on my pirellis now so I'll see if their need for their also good warranty.
Best thing is both are so much more quiet and the pirellis are amazing off the line and in the rain.
Tires are everything. They are the only part of your bike that touches the ground and they make the biggest difference in rolling resistance and comfort.
Spend your money on GOOD TIRES before boosting the performance. The car gets very torquey when tuned, and if you don\u2019t have rubber that can grip the road consistently, you will find yourself spinning if you start out a bit too exuberantly. I have Continental ProContact all seasons.
I have a set of 20” scorpion MS but in 275 format because i like the extra width for alottle more braking improvement. The MS doesnt have 3 peak designation though so no good for europe winter.(im in UK so doesnt bother me)
Apparently there are Balancing issues with Pirelli tires. I had Pirelli Scorpions and could never get them right with 3 tire shops.
I have been looking for replacements for the awful Pirellis (on 22s). I’m on my second set - and the rain we’ve have in New England would get the Rivian hydroplaning where I’d never had that issue with my old Lexus GX with Michelin’s.
