Tires Continental or GOODRIDGE

Have had them since Friday and haven’t had any bad weather yet, but there is only just the slightest difference in dry handling performance from the stock tires. For me, a non-professional driver not driving on a track, it’s only just _barely_ noticeable.

Continental terrain contacts performed amazingly on my vw Touareg. Took them to Moab regularly and lived in summit county Colorado. So they saw plenty of slick rock and snow. Not the best cold weather tire, but one of the best all terrains in cold weather. Way better winter performance than my ko2s.

I'm a big fan of my Continental Terrain Contact A/T. They don't look aggressive as KO2s or Falkens, but they perform well off-road, wet conditions, and are quiet on the road. Have not tested them in icy conditions.

High Desert Nevada. Continental have gotten me through the big storms we get and numerous icy conditions. With the traction control on the Velos, they have worked great.

Continental SRS+ drive amazing in the rain, good grip around corners and ride quality is great

On our 07 wagon we did SPT wagon pink springs on KYBs, 16” Sparco Terra’s with Continental DWS tires. Full set of Group N bushings, Cobb intake/acessport/cat back.

IME/FWIW front to back & side to side is fine w/ the DWS06+ although never really had too much of a difference in wear side to side over many sets of them on several vehicles. Front to back has been the biggest difference in wear on my Mk 6, 8.5V S3, Alltrack, & Mk 7.5.

I have always been a fan of Continental. I put control contact SRS+ tires on mine via Discount Tire. About 900 for 4 new ones with install and lifetime rotation/balance and replacement certs

I just put the Enduro soft Kryptotal Fr and Re on and totally agree with your impression, they grip well but man are they noticeably slower than other similar tires. In my case Exo+ DHF and DHRs. I honestly don't know that the grip is worth it. I'm definitely not improving my time uphill or downhill.

I had these tires before and they do wear fast. If you run them in the 30s, they will flat spot easy and wear the shoulders. I'd not recommend these tires.
