Tires Pirelli or Shinko
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.
Are used to put Pirelli‘s on my Panamera turbo. I found that they had much lower longevity than the Michelins.
I just bought an F150 with pretty new Pirelli tires. My old one ran Michelins. The Pirellis just don't ride and perform nearly as good.
I am sure Pirelli makes plenty of good tires but I was shocked how terrible the OEM P Zero summer tires were that came on my 2016 mustang. Equivalent summer tires from both Michelin and Continental were quieter, had better grip when hot, had better grip when cold, and performed better in the rain.
