Tires Continental or BFGoodrich

I run the WinterContactSI on my M3 (and had them on my R), and they have been my all time favorite snow/winter tire.

I loved the Conti viking 7's on my rav4 so much, I sold the Xi3's on my Prius Prime and switched to Contis as well. 225/45/17 mounted on 17x7. They seem to wear about as well as the Michelins but they grip much better in all weather conditions, are quieter than the already very quiet Xi3, and the handling is firmer.

Continental extreme contact DWS are what I've had in my RS for three years for non summer seasonal driving. They are excellent.

Tire wise it came with Continental Extreme Contact DWS I ran last year and through winter. I now have Falken RT615K+ on but will change as the cold approaches.

I have them on my Golf Alltrack and like them. I replaced the factory Continental ProContact TX tires. They are quieter then the Conti's. I bought them because I feel they are the perfect tire for the PNW. They are good in the rain, dry, light snow, dirt roads.

The KO2’s are what I’m running now. It’s a pretty legendary tire and has been around for decades now. They have good thread life, look aggressive, decently quiet on the road and do well in most off road situations except for thick mud since they aren’t, well, a mud tire.

I run the E-rated KO2's, have for the past three years. They aren't loud, ride smoother than the Geolander AT's that came on the truck, and balanced perfectly the first time through. People hate on the KO2's but I'm not sure why, it's an extremely solid, durable, race bred tire.

Ever since that, got some KO2s and can drive confidently in snow all day long.

Recently replaced my worn out 18 inch Primaxys (36000 miles) with the Continental DWS06s. It looks like a 5-10% efficiency drop versus the stock tires. I think they are a little quieter on the highway though. Bumps do have a reverb sound the stocks didn't have.

One of the best mods I’ve done in my car so far is Motegi wheels in 17” and Firestone Firehawk.......the stock Contis suck!
