Tires Continental or GENERAL TIRE

GENERAL TIRE Tires

I use General RT43's on all my cars. Good budget all season that is also (relatively) good in snow. Not pilot sports, but dont drive like an idiot and they won't do anything funny to you. Dealt with everything from a foot of snow to hydroplaning conditions, never had them do anything scary to me.

Wear is good, grip is good, handles a variety of weather conditions well enough, and never had a manufacturing defect on the 16 tires ive owned. IMO from the research ive done and my experience, they are the bang for the buck of any tire out there.

Pros: good grip, good wear

GENERAL TIRE Tires

Yes, they are great tires. I currently run General Grabber ATXs on my truck and have ran General G-MAX performance tires on a previous car without issues.

Pros: great tires, no issues

I wouldn’t have any hesitations buying General Tires. They are made and distributed by Continental tire, which is generally a reputable brand. Have had experience with both their all season and winter tires in the past and never ran into any issues with them. I used the RT43, G-Max and Altimax Arctic with no problems. There are certainly much worse tires out there, these ones are a good buy.

Pros: good buy, no issues

I put on a set of the Conti's Extreme Contact DWS06 in 225/45-18, and they made a world of difference over the standard Turanzas (I have a base Turbo hatch). Better grip, better steering feel, quieter, and with the slight (I mean slight) increase in sidewall, better ride over bumps and stuff.

Pros: better grip, better steering

I have the continental ExtremeContact DWS! I had the same problem as you and after replacing them my hatch feels way more responsive and more sporty, i got them in the winter and they seemed to do really well with slush and ice

Pros: more responsive, more sporty

I just put the Continental DWS06 Plus on my 3 hatch and took them on a long trip. Definitely inspired more confidence than the original Toyos I had on the car. Takes a corner nicely. ;) Think road noise is less as well.

Pros: inspired confidence, takes corner
Cons: null
Vehicle: Mazda 3

I had the continental contipro contacts on my car for around 6 years. They were good tires, they worked on dry roads and in the snow about as effectively, their rain grip was a little questionable, but what I really hated about them was how fast they wore out.

Pros: good on dry roads, good in snow
Cons: wore out fast, questionable rain grip
