I just switched from the Michelin Pilot Sport AS4s to the Continental DWS06 Plus. I've put about 300 miles on the Continentals. The ride on the Continentals is noticeably smoother and quieter comparted to the Michelins.

Pros: smoother and quieter
Mileage: 483 km

Continental Extreme Contacts DWS plus 06 EXCEL in wet performance...It's ones I've probably had over 10 sets of 4 on different VW's over the decades, 17+ VW lots of miles, lots of driving previously. Current 2019 Golf rrrrrr is Conti Extreme DWS, superb stuff.

Pros: excel in wet performance
Cons: summer tires too soft

Continental truecontact tour. There's a newer version but as I understand it it's essentially the same tire. Much better handling in the rain. They were slightly noisy at first but I don't notice it anymore, that was probably just from the breakin period.

I swapped wheels for 16's and I think my fuel efficiency overall is about the same as before. City fuel economy may be slightly better because of lower wheel weight, highway economy slightly worse due to drag from less aero rims. But I'm not sure if there's really any difference.

Pros: better handling in rain, good fuel efficiency
Cons: slightly noisy at first

My Car ( Honda City 4th Gen 2022) came with Goodyear Assurance 175 65 15 they lasted for 30K km from those, switched to Continental UC6 195 60 R15. Most of my driving are on good roads and highways , did Delhi to Ahmedabad post upgrade, really loved the ride comfort and how overall tyre noise got reduced, also car started gliding over small potholes and bumps effortlessly. I was also considering Yokohama Blue Earth GT but couldn\u2019t find it easily in the size I required.

Pros: ride comfort, reduced noise
Vehicle: Honda City
Mileage: 30000 km

Continental was a hit and miss for me. One set was great, then four years later the next generation of the same line was rubbish.

Pros: one set was great
Cons: next generation rubbish

I had this issue with four new Continental PureContacts almost two years ago. I had one blow out the side wall from a small pothole. Had it replaced and that one got a bubble in the sidewall. Had that one replaced and that one and another original got a bubble. No potholes hit, correct psi, etc. DT replaced them all with Michelin Defenders. I've hit some bad pot holes in Dallas highways and they have held up strong. Apparently Continental has had issues with sidewalls being weak due to cure time. It's unfortunate because they were so quiet, great traction in the rain and comfortable. I don't think I'd risk going with Continental again.

Pros: quiet, great traction
Cons: weak sidewalls, bubbles
