Tires Continental or GISLAVED

Ending up buying the continental DWS and I am loving it. Like Its so smooth and the road noise is much lower.

The 4 seasons are a great training tyre. They roll well enough for mortals and are pretty durable.

I've rode 4 Seasons, Gatorskins, GP4000s, and prefer GP5000s over all of them for puncture resistance. Plus they have grip.

They seems good through the MN winter, including 2 trips to the North Shore of Superior. It snowed both times, and we never had any issue with traction.

Best all-season tires I've found so far personally.

The continental terra speed tires are only a watt or two slower than the gravel king slicks.

I decided to switch to Continental PureContact tires as they are better rated and less expensive and still are low rolling resistance. I haven’t noticed any loss in range.

PS - for what it’s worth, my snow tires are Continental WinterContacts and I’ve run them for about 6 years so far and I still have over 60% tread left. They’re fantastic.

I've the ProContract Tx as stock, and they are quiet on everyday surfaces, both at city and highway speeds. Ride is compliant and soft, but not squishy. However once they are on concrete highways, the road noise ruins it all.

I certainly hope they've improved them since '99, because mine were definitely Craptinentals. It was like driving on roller skates.
