Tires Continental or GT Radial

Continental Tires

Continental Extreme Contact Force looks to be an awesome RS4 alternative. I haven't had a chance to try them yet but by all accounts and reviews they're a little quicker than the RS4 with the same kind of long life and resistance to overheating.

Pros: quicker, long life
Cons: not tried yet

I've been using Continental GP5000's with latex tubes for several years and have had great service out of them. I generally get about 5,000 miles out of a set and might get a puncture every 2,500 miles or so.

Pros: great service, durable
Cons: puncture every 2500 miles
Mileage: 8046 km

I run GP5000 with latex inner. Replaced Michelin Pro 4 Endurance and standard tubes. I find the GP5000 to be super grippy, i run 28c front and back at 80 psi

Pros: super grippy

My wife and I put about 5k miles a year (each) on GP 5000s with latex tubes, and absolutely love them. That combination is fast, comfortable, and very durable on our carbon rims. Last year we had 2 flats total between us, so to us, not worth the hassle of going tubeless. The GP5000s also last the full 5k miles before needing replacement. Very highly recommended!!

Pros: fast, comfortable, very durable
Cons: 2 flats total
Mileage: 8046 km

I ride GP5000s (28mm) with latex tubes on my crit bike. Great grip, rolling resistance, and road feel with the right tire pressure.

Pros: great grip, rolling resistance

I run these tubeless and they are the best tubeless for sure, zero fuss mounting, can use a standard pump and orange seal for sealant, if you can’t go tubeless your suggestion would be the next best thing. I’ve found them incredibly durable and a comfortable to ride on no matter the conditions.

Pros: incredibly durable, comfortable ride

I swapped out at 36k to Continental EXtremeContact DWS06 (50,000 mile warranty). They were $1000 installed at my tire place. It looked like the stock Primacy's would have been $200-300 more. The Continentals are less efficient (\~5% or so), but the extra money I will spend on electricity over the life of the tire doesn't make up the cost difference. Currently have about 10k miles on the new tires. Can't tell any real difference in noise or ride comfort level.

Pros: no difference noise, ride comfort
Cons: less efficient
Mileage: 10000 km

Stock Contis are history at 30K The roaring inside the cabin due to cupping has become unbearable, so I wear foam earplugs and my shooting muffs over them.

Cons: roaring inside the cabin
