Tires Continental or Cooper

The current DH Conti line is the best tire out there right now. But holy crap, is it hard to get on rims.

As a Maxxis rider who hasn't tried Michy but has tried Conti... Conti are the best tires I've ever run so far. And I liked the Maxxis overall. It's hard to imagine a tire better than these Contis.

My car had tires from 2015, so I swapped all the tires for a set of new Conti ECS. 02s which has been great.

I have the ProContact RXs on my MS LR. They were excellent in dry, wet and snow . I've read htat they get worse in really cold weather, but they were fine up to around -5-10 degrees celsius and 10-15cm snow atop Donner Pass in Tahoe. Did not need chains.

I run the DSW06 Plus year around even on my race car. They're much better than the ProContact but they will not last as long. They also are a bit louder but pretty dang grippy even in severe weather.

I got continetals and they have been great so far.

I finally decided to try out some tires that might be closer to a road tire... I decided on the Continental Contact Urban’s in 700x 42mm.

I did my first big commute on them last week, and also rode around town all weekend. I‘m super impressed! They roll very fast! Great grip cornering tightly on pavement and they don’t feel the least bit sketchy on gravel or dirt sections...On the sections where I usually average 13-15 mph, I was getting more like 14-17 mph...But overall, a noticeable improvement.

The continental extreme contact sport dws06+ is grippy enough for spirited summer driving and handles well in snow. Not as good as a snow tire but as good as you can get with an a/s. Highly recommend

Now with 17K miles i have had three flats due to the well known issues with Stock Conti's on the 20' Rosarios. Replaced with Goodyear upfront and so far so good.

Some people like them, I really hate them. I find them slow, hard and not grippy, not puncture resistant at all, heavy. My back wheel would just slide around on its own when it was wet out.
