Tires Continental or GT Radial

Continental is the only way to go, period. I tried the PilotSports - junk. OEM's - junk.

If studded tires aren't an option I've had good experiences with Continental Vikintcontacts, although a non-studded tire will always perform worse on ice.

Have the continental tires all 4 wheels of my 2018 turbo love them ride nice on highway driving.

Ever since I started using the ExtremeContact DWS years ago on my ‘08 Mazda6, I’ve never gone back except for the stock tires that came on my ‘15. I really liked them when I had to deal with snow.

I am using them on MYLR since 8 months and already clocked 10k miles tread loss is around 15%, hoping to clovk 60k miles atleast - very sure. They are superb and tesla stock tires (Continental) were mess and in just 18K state inspection failed because there was no tread left LOL

For myself and my family, I highly recommend GT Radial having used them in Indonesia when we lived there (it's originally an Indonesian brand).

Conti's on my R since 1000K miles. I'm at 24K now and they're holding up great. I'm in CT, we get some good snow events here, not like Chi town I'm sure, but the couple times I had to go out in it I wasn't too worried.

I also live in Toronto, I use Viking Contacts in the winter, very happy with these tires. They are quieter than the average winter tire when driving on bare dry pavement.

No issues other than one blown front Conti tire after hitting a small pothole.

The service manager of my local tire dealership told me these Continental tires were great tires. Never had continental tires before. The first time there was a bubble on the sidewall of the tire of course they never told me about the warranty or the class action lawsuit over it. So I shelled out $350 to have it replaced. The second time it blew out by the same company who sold them to me but a different location. They told me it should be under warranty and it took a while, but they ended up having no charge But I had to pay the $35 warranty in case it happened again and the tire and balance along with it. Not too long after that tire had the same issue (bubble) luckily I've been through it before and got it replaced for free, but not after a bunch of jacking around and of course, my time my effort and waiting for them to do it and the balancing etc. fees Here I am in July 2024 and another bubble on the sidewall the tire. I'm furious. I called Continental and they basically said sorry they'll have to go through normal channels to see if it's warranted. Pretty much had a nonchalant attitude. So I asked the guy. What would you do if it was you and all your time and effort and $350 down the drain and because the first guy didn't tell you it should've been warrantied , he said I would just continue to let them replace them on warranty. Pretty much no help. So here I am waiting to find out from the third location of the same place who sold them to me if they will be warrantied. Never buy continental tires ever ever again.
