Tires Continental or Cooper

Now, I have vikingcontact8 tires which are also amazing.

I have continental dws06 plus all seasons and haven't had a hiccup. This car has treated me surprisingly well in the snow

I can second the contis as being great in summer, handling >30 degrees Celsius with aplomb.

Of the four tires on your list, the Conti seems to me the most suitable for your conditions.

I have them on my XC60 and I like them very much.

On my 4wd stuff, I’ve always used E-rated Cooper A/T’s (currently two trucks wearing Strongholds) with the same story. Never had to cash in on that warranty. Just drive em, check the pressure every couple days, and get after it.

I am a big sucker for GP5000 S TR, and run them in 32mm. Absolutely love it, and they work really well on hardback/light gravel too, speedy, grippy, and no punctures.

My cheap car with small wheels got $400 cooper tires Made in USA at Sam's Club all in . Highly rated by Tire Rack as well

But my contis went 12,000km with zero punctures, which is either luck or a great advertisement

Most of my traction issues are probably down to my snow tires( cooper evolution winter) I’ll be switching brands for 2026 winter season. But overall tbh they handle really well.

I live in NY, conti’s suck. Blew out so many that my dealership couldn’t get any more in stock and had the wheel and tire warranty.
