I went with the Nexens and have been very pleased.
Owner reviews for tires
Falken’s parent company sumitomo makes the encounter AT with similar performance for much cheaper, it’s what I’m running currently and they’re great
I put DWS 06+ on my 2016 GTI S at about 93,000 miles. At 142,000 I still have some tread left. They're far superior to the OEM Bridgestones (H rated? Seriously, VW?) I replaced those with TAs and they were pretty good, but the Contis are much better.
I have run Continental DWS 06 extreme contact all seasons on multiple vehicles and have been very impressed with grip. I would recommend these if you’re looking at replacements.
I had those on my Stock S13 (169 HP) on 17's and they worked like a charm.
Beautiful consistent Grip through the whole tire-life. I also didn't overinflate them. Ran them on 2 Bar cold pressure.
I honestly was impressed how well they worked on my car.
Not the 02 but I had a set of the Conti ECSs on my stage 1 MK7 R and loved them. Great wet traction, especially under power, and they were fairly quiet. I also have them on my current E92 M3 and they've stood up very well to two track days so far. Loads of dry grip.
Michelin pilot sport as are the best all season tire out there, hence why you see them on supercars and hypercars.
But the best set I have ever owned was a set of Michelin Defenders. Smooth and you always felt glued to the road.
25,000 miles on my Y and had to replace Goodyear F1s. Went to Michelin Primacy MX4.
Yep same thing happened to me, my OEM tires were shit. I had like 16k on mine. Normal driving, not aggressive or anything. Literally only lasted a year. Mine were Bridgestones.
