Tires Continental or KENDA

If you want an all season, you can’t go wrong with Continental, or the Pilot Sport 4s summer tire like most suggest.

My 2016 came with Dunlops that were garbage, replaced them at 25k with Continental DWS06s and it was like getting a brand new car. Highly recommend.

I'm running Continental DWSO6+'s and absolutely love them. I'm at stock size and got them for $640. I just drove during winter storm Izzy, and have zero complaints.

Personally, I went with the Continentals three weeks ago and love them.

We put the Viking 7’s on my wife’s FWD Tiguan and it’s been crushing these last two Wisconsin winters. Very pleased with them so far.

We put the Viking Contact 7's on our 2021 Golf. My 2019 Golf R has Nokian Haka R2's. Winter performance for the two tires is basically indistinquishable to me, which is very high praise as the Nokians have long been considered the best winter tire money can buy. The fact that the VC's are so much cheaper means that if I had to buy new winter tires right now for the R I would for sure get the VC's. Can't go wrong with them.

Had a DWS06, which I wore off.

Bought DWS06+, still riding those.

Excellent snow, ice and wet weather traction. Never had issues!

I'm very happy with mine too. Many years with Blizzaks and I think these are better for road nose, just as good in the snow.

Not too sure if the continental are especially weak on the sidewalls, but I blistered 2 tires in a single summer + a leak on a third one. I'm a "careful" driver when it comes to preserving the integrity of my car lol. Montreal, Canada, is known for its ****ty road quality... So yeah, these tires are super easy to damage!

They are very squirmy tires, a poor choice for a sporty car IMO. I have a set of Michelin PA4 snows that are definitely better dry performers than the DWS. I purchased the DWS once for an Audi A4, but I returned them in less than a week.
