Continental DWS. Gave up some responsiveness but rides on clouds now. Much more compliant on the roads now (19 inch wheels)
On 2nd set of Yokohama advans. Much better than OEMs
Am running Yoko's Apex Summer Tires. Very pleased on my 2017 Touring.
I've had some Yokohama AVID Ascend GT's on mine for about a year and a half with no complaints.
For my 2011 Element AWD, switched from the original Goodyears to Continental Control Contact in 235/65/16 (calculated for appropriate aspect ratio). No rubbing in the wheel wells. Better ride and traction.
I have the SL4 with the the 51’s and gp5000 32c”s. I highly recommended, I’m glad i spent the extra for pro’s and I’m also glad I went with the deep rims instead of the 37’s. It’s plenty fast and I’m really pleased with the setup.
If you really want a budget tire I’d recommend the Continental extreme contacts... I have them on my R for daily driving and they’ve been great. I’m right around 494 WHP and they have excellent traction in a straight line and turning. It’s actually pretty hard to get them to spin
Conti Extrem contat DWS 06 + Been using them in several sets on many VW's great water and grip, long lasting with great traction tire rack, 2 year road hazard, cus our roads suck, I took out one in a giant crater on teh NJ Tpk (and ya PAY high tolls for a **** road) tire rack hazard covered it, new tire next day check a wek later, had VW dealer mount and balance $16...all better
I'll be running the same Continental Winter Contact SI on the explorer. They did fine last year for me.
This weekend I had to pay tire discounters to remove the foam from all 4 of my tires because it was coming off and causing unbalanced tires. These tires aren’t good.
