Tires Continental or BFGoodrich

I put these on my GTI before I sold it. Really liked the tire. It is more forgiving of cold morning temperatures than most other summers. I used it year-round in southern TN (never drove the car in the snow).

185 wide Michelin Energy savers to 205 Continental premiumcontact 6.

Holy shit the grip is amazing. In all conditions. Rain, cold, whatever. 20mins of track time even goes well

Continental Extreme Contact DWS06’s are excellent. Same size as the summer tires on the Golf R. Excellent winter traction, I’ve had these on all my GTI’s, and I just put them on my new R.

I installed 235f and 255r for a wider look. Continental extreme contact dsw. SL sidewall load range so not as solid as XL. I had to put more air in \~38lbs because they were mushy in curves but now seem fine. I trust them more in the rain than I would high performance tires.

Check out continental extremecontact sport. It was continentals competitor to the pilot super sport. Cheaper than ps4 and quite good!

I went with Conti purecontact LS in 225/50. Fits the rim great. Conti specifies 6-8" width and this rim is 7". I know wider isn't considered better for winter but it's a great tire and will do much better than what comes oem in the cold and snow. Still a narrower contact patch than what comes on the SEL. Same revolutions per mile as the stock 205/55. These are all season as opposed to all whether but get better snow and ice reviews than many all weathers.

I've had Continental DWS06 235/40/18 225/45/18 tires on my 2011 Speed and I loved them. The 235/40 had more grip but the 225/45 ride better. Simply put, the DWS06 tires are the best tires I've ever owned.

the mechanic that put on my new Continentals reckons I'll get 20,000ks out of them.

Continental DWS06's have always had issues without being out of balance. This has been a criticism since they were introduced. That being said, they are probably the best all season tire for \"snow.\"

My last two sets of tires were Hankook Ventus V2, which were okay (no idea how they are M+S rated) and a set of Continental ContiProContacts which I bought after several recommendations from friends and I will never buy another Continental tire in my life, they were terrible in almost every single way.
