Tires Pirelli or Kumho
Go for Pirelli if you want more durability, Longevity and easier mounting if tubeless.
I ride on Pirellli road 25c tires for years. I had finally replaced them last year. They ride nice and had good traction. I don't think the Conti is worth the money. They seem wear quicker.
I’ve been happy with the Pirelli’s easy to mount and good puncture protection while feeling fast.
I run the pirellis p zero 4s and love them comfortable and roll really well.
Opposite datapoint: I run Pirelli Race TL Rs 700x30s on my Gen 7 Madone (tubeless FWIW). Way more comfy than the OE 25s (R3) and faster.
If you want fast and durable, Look at Pirelli Cinturato Velo.
The new UHP tires on the block: Pirelli P Zero AS Plus 3.
Tire rack as well as Tyre reviews put themselves above the DWS06.
I only buy continentals. I'd advise you do the same. I've had kumhos before but they were meh.
They have great grip, but they have insane pricing and terrible wear. The stock pirellis on my SRT GC lasted only 13k miles. I get 30k+ from everything else I put on it. The pirelli cost $600 each. My current nittos were under $300 each.
Well pirelli p4's where the lowest grip tires in rain and snow I've ever used even though they are 'all season'. Fwd cars should not do a 360 on snow at less than 15mph in a gentle turn. Never had that issue with any other brand of all seasons even in worse driving conditions.
