Tires Continental or Firestone

I'm on GP 4 seasons and they've been great for 7000km and counting. I really should have bought them again. They're a bit worn but they can still hang on for a few more months.

No way. They are far too expensive for commuting duties. I commuted 8000km this year which would have required an expensive tire change just over halfway through (I get about 5-6000km out of the GP5000s I run on my road bike). The Contact Urbans I use instead for commuting aren't *that* much slower, but they're *far* more durable (over 11,000km on my current set and still going strong) and *much* cheaper to boot.

I ride the GP 4 Season 700x28 in urban Memphis, TN, US with tons of glass, potholes, and debris. I find them to be the "sweet spot" balance of puncture/rolling resistance. They don't feel quite as quick as GP5000s to me but far far better than gatorskins, or armadillos, or other "tough" tires.

Yeah, no problems, not a single puncture with the GP5000. In contrast, I recently tried Conti RIDE tour and ooh myy good, the traction is garbage compared to the GP5000. Instantly bought other tires.

The Continental DWS06 is a huge step up for daily use and they hook noticeably better, but they’re still an all-season, so don’t expect drag-radial levels of grip you’ll still chirp a bit if you launch hard.

I have the DWS06+ on my 24 PP, world of a difference versus the perelli summers that came stock. Truly felt like I would die on those things sometimes

If you just want the best real-world pick for a Golf in 205/55R16, skip the test charts and go straight for the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 it consistently lands top-3 across every test because it nails wet grip, winter traction, and tread life without the noise/harshness of CrossClimate.

Continental tires by chance?

Dws are loud. If you value comfort go for some touring tires

Those are suredrive sold by firestone. Do not even think of taking these on any ice or snow. Firestone sells all season tires that have the capability of going in snow but these are not it. These are entry level tires.good enough for highway and city driving but that\u2019s it.
