Tires Continental or Cooper

Continental ECS 02. 205/50-15. $140 each.

Even though a 340 rating they bite hard and still do quite well with cooler weather and light rain.

All season continental.

I have run DWS06+'s all year long on my dailies for years... They are unbeatable. I currently have a GR Corolla with them and it doesn't matter what season or what the conditions are... It crushes it.

I was running Conti ECS 02s on my just recently traded in 2022 GT RF and they were fantastic. Can’t wait to put those on my 2025 RF Club as soon as I need tires. Huge difference in both wet and dry. Coming from 2 sets on Michelin pilot sports and 2 sets of pilot sport 4s on my old Stage 3 8V Audi S3 and the Conti’s are very very similar to me in what I do as far as aggressive driving.

I’ll put a vote in for conti extreme contact sports, the car feels so good on the 2 sets I’ve been through so far.

Only downside is that they seem to wear somewhat quickly, my last set only lasted me like 12k, but it being my fun car, it pretty much only sees fairly hard use

I switched off of those to a set of Continental Vikingcontact 8 this year. I don't know if it's because my Xice were old or what but I find the contis to be about 50% (subjective, obviously) better than the michelins

I've been impressed with Cooper Discoverer Road + Trail. I had the stock Goodyear Wrangler's and they were scary in the winter. Just got the Coopers on a few weeks ago and they have been great.

This probably would never happen with some continental extreme contact sport 02\u2019s on there

Went with the DWS 6+ but they are noisy. Very grippy here in Vancouver though. I have doubts about them in the snow though.

Cannot stress this enough do not buy continental tires they’re shit their warranty sucks speaking from experience and trips to the Audi dealership to prove there’s nothing wrong with my car paperwork back-and-forth with Continental to try and get them to warranty my tires that disintegrated after 10 to 12,000 km Their crap Michelin pilot sport is the way to go
