Tires Continental or Achilles

I'm very happy with mine too. Many years with Blizzaks and I think these are better for road nose, just as good in the snow.

I just got my 2022 Golf R and the dealership put those exact tires on for me and they are great!

I'm running VikingContact7 on the wife's Passat, and I have Hakkapeliitta R3 on my Alltrack. I figure when the R3 get replaced next fall VikingContact7 will replace them. They are excellent on snow and ice and very quiet. I've driven thru stuff on them that after I get thru I realize I probably should have been more careful, but didn't notice a thing a the time. I don't do that with the Hakkapeliittas.

I'm running the Conti VIkingContact7s. I had them on my 2019 and the dealership transferred them over to the new car for me since they're the same size. I've been very happy with them over the past two winters. They will definitely give up some dry weather handling to something like a PA4, but they're excellent on snow and ice. They're also reasonably quiet for a winter tire as well.

I have the extreme contacts dws 06 plus in a 225 45 17 and i love them, super grippy even in the rain and ive put almost 3000 miles on the set and they look like new still

I just put a set of Continental extremecontact dws06 plus on my car and they are an absolute dream in the ice and snow for an all season

Love mine, they’re great

Just moved from Nokian all weather, which are really good, to studded Contis on a small fwd vehicle. Pretty unreal difference. Have Bridgestone all weather on an awd vehicle, which are also good, but the studded Contis beat the crap out of them.

Michelin MXV4 to Continental DWS

DWS superior in everyway except getting bubbles. It would bubble at every pothole. Went to Michelin Premier A/S it was a downgrade in everything except bubbling still better than MXV4

Stock Contis are history at 30K The roaring inside the cabin due to cupping has become unbearable, so I wear foam earplugs and my shooting muffs over them.
