Tires Continental or Goodyear

My regular DWS06’s were amazing in the snow last winter.

I normally use Nokian Hakkapeliittas on my Golf and while they still have more than enough legal tread, I don't believe they're optimum for hardpacked snow. Unfortunately, there's a waitlist for new Nokians, so I'm going with Continental Wintercontacts, which have a sterling rating.

I have the Conti, corners well, good traction, pretty loud.

I've never regretted buying the best tires I can afford. Often Michelin and Goodyear, but sometimes others too.

Michelin X-Ice if you can afford them, otherwise I swear by the Goodyear Nordics as the best affordable option and even what I prefer myself over the X-Ice.

Continental DSW06, might be able to find older model (not the + I think) for cheaper.

I had Duratracs on my Tacomas when I lived in the Denver area. They were reliable on and off road and handled well in all conditions. They were a little noisy when they wore down, but what 33's arent'?

Been running these on my JKU for three years now. They tend to get much louder as they age. They're great in snow, but not very good on ice or even wet roads.

Oh, and my OEM tires Continental PureContacts wore out....fast! (And I run snows in winter). Crap tires I won't buy again.
