Tires Continental or Barum

After about 30k miles I changed the OEM tires to Continental Cross Contact LX25. I recalled the day I drove my Venza off the dealership. Everything feels so smooth and stable again!

Ich fahr immer Conti, weil ich selbst bei starkem Regen in meinem Ibiza immer noch super stabil unterwegs bin und als Eco Contact soll der Verbrauch auch nochmal besser sein, besonders weil ich auch immer ca. 0.3-0.5 bar mehr reinhaue. Meine jährliche Fahrleistung liegt bei 25k und da lohnt sich das dann eben schon, da Conti auch den Ruf hat, besonders lang zu halten. Die letzten, wobei das noch die normalen irgendwas contact waren, haben mir bei den Kilometern 5 Jahre klasse durchgehalten.

In Virginia, use a 245/40 continental dws. Did great in our last snow

The continent Viking contact 7 is what I run in Colorado mountains. IMO best bang for buck winter tire. It’s my ski car so if there is powder I am there and hasn’t failed me yet.

I replaced the run flats on my ‘24 X7 last week. I have 22” staggered wheels and replaced them with the Continental DWS06. Couldn’t be happier. This is my second X7 and I love the car, but I wanted more than 10k out of a set of tires.

I’ve been running conti DWS 06s on my X5/7s for years. Really like them. Good all weather traction, even in the snow. If you’re in lots of snow often then a true winter/summer setup is best as nothing beats snow tires, but for the usual storms we get in the Denver area they’re solid.

I am absolutely loving my 2014 WRX hatchback on Continental DWS's tires. My friend who absolutely WHIPS his Porsche Boxster couldn't keep up and told me to "slow dooooown".

Recently bought and installed CONTINENTAL AllSeasonContact 2 XL EVc. They are amazing, quiet and perfect on wet and dry roads. I’m so happy.

Will be interested to see rolling test results.

As someone who was between these two tires and went with DWS06, get the Michelins. I've had issues with vibrations from the continentals that just won't go away. Balanced multiple times by multiple shops. Had all suspension and steering components checked and couldn't solve it.
