Tires Pirelli or Continental
I bought continental sw06 extreme contact. I like them.pair on wife's tdi and the mk7.5 gti.not Michelin but they work all yr round.
Dws06 here. The rain grip is wow. The snow grip is snow tire like for me in Western NY where I need it. Dry grip is fine. Best all season tires I think I've ever had.
I got extreme contact dws06 on mine. I love them. Great grip in wet and dry conditions for 30% less than the Michelins. Super quiet too
I fitted the same tires this summer on my Audi A5. UK, Essex. Very pleased with them for now, done about 3000 mls on them. My only concern about this tires is life expectancy.
I've tested them on track at 30c. Not ideal but they're not going to pop.
They'll be fine at -10c too, we're usually testing below that.
I have an SUV with these tires I live in Luxembourg so the weather is more the least identical and I went on holiday to Portugal in the summer I caught very hot days on a very motorway and they are still very good.
I've just bought the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 for my car (Mazda 3 2.0 186hp). I live in south of Germany where there isn't much snow and the temperatures are mostly around -5 to 10C from December to March. The summer tyres I've got with the car (Toyo Proxes R51A) are actually worse on wet than most premium all seasons (at least according to the label), so I'm losing "just" some of the dry grip in the summer. I drive only like 6-7k km/year. For now they feel surprisingly good (around 5-10C outside) especially in wet - actually not much different than the UHP Hankook summer tyres I had on my previous car (were probably a complete overkill for the car).
I just put the Enduro soft Kryptotal Fr and Re on and totally agree with your impression, they grip well but man are they noticeably slower than other similar tires. In my case Exo+ DHF and DHRs. I honestly don't know that the grip is worth it. I'm definitely not improving my time uphill or downhill.
5000 miles on new 2023 Accord Hybrid Sport, and my Continental Eagle Touring, 235/40 R19 96V are leaking air. Very disappointed, bought the car new one year ago.
Absolute garbage, they only lasted 20k miles on my XC90 T8. Pretty bad in wet conditions also.
