Tires Continental or FEDERAL

I put a set of Continental TrueContact Tour on our 2016 about this time last year and so far so good. They do OK in the snow (we don’t get a lot or heavy) and I don’t think they are noisy compared to the Yokohamas that were on them before. We put a lot of highway miles on them and they handle well in the rain. Pacific Northwest, so I worry more about driving in the rain over other conditions.

I went with continental DWS06+ and I like them, went from rt660s to them and you can definitely tell a big difference in grip but it wasn’t as bad as I thought it’d be

(2014 Audi AllRoad) I had the Quatrac Pro for 4 years. For dry, wet and winter traction as well as noise and tread wear, they beat the Continental Pro Contacts that preceded them.

I've had them for about 10k miles now and they are fantastic.

I replaced my tires back in January with Continental TrueContact 54s and have no complaints, I live in the Phoenix metro so mostly clear, dry roads. The stock tires that were on it were pretty much gone after 31k miles.

They are great tires but an extremely close contender is the DWS06+ from Continental. They are both amazing in the UHP all season category. This is splitting hairs but in my experience the DWS have better wet performance

We just put the CONTINENTAL - TrueContact Tour 54 on our car (22 bolt euv) and we haven't noticed any loss of range and they've been great so far.

For better piece of mind, I also recommend Continental DWS06+. 3 years and close to 40K miles on them in my 370Z, they're just now at 5/32 of tread.

Federals will be really noisy after a few thousand miles. Almost like your wheel bearings don’t exist anymore. Had rs-rr and 615k+. 615k+ is better. Both are way off pace but great budget tires. 615k+ is actually a pretty good tire for hpde.

I got federals once because bills were coming all at once. Worst tires i ever had, so noisy, rough on the road and just didn’t feel great. Snow they were actually great surprisingly.
