Tires Continental or KENDA

Our other car is a 2015 mazda 3 with continental vikings. No complaints there as well.

First driving impressions reveal that the ride is indeed much improved, speed humps are no longer intimidating and it rides much smoother and quieter on your typical city street.

People said these tires handle like garbage. I was skeptical—and yeah, they’re a bit squishy at first—but honestly, unless you’re trying to turn your grocery run into a Formula 1 race, they’re actually decent. The family has stopped complaining, which is a miracle; these tires actually soften the blow of our awful roads. Range is about the same, but the noise? Night and day. Old Contis were basically a marching band on wheels; now it’s quiet enough to enjoy the ride without wanting earplugs.

They have been fantastic, drove through huge rain storms and never felt unsafe once

Just got these to replace my OEM contis that lasted 40k miles. So far I’m loving the SRS+.

I’ve used Continental (very good), Hankook (good), Goodyear (good - worse handling in summer than Conti but excellent in winter, higher wear).

I ran the Continental Extreme Contact Force on my VA and it's a great endurance 200 tire.

I had Conti DWS 06+ on my MK7 GTI and my wife has them on her 2020 330xi on 19s. I can't say enough good things about them. Good balance of performance and comfort, they are more taut than Grand Touring tires but still comfortable around town and on long drives. They've worn evenly and have been excellent in all 3 season weather conditions

I run the Discount Tireequivalent of the control\u00a0Contact sport all season on my scion XB daily. Quite as hard as ever put on that car, which has a lot of road noise. Sticks very well in the rain and heat, but I can\u2019t attest to snow as cited above. They did wear a lot faster than their rated mileage so I got money back on the mileage warranty when I put on a new set recently.

My experience with Continental Tire...I loved them. My wife loved them. Right up to the point that the second set tried to do us in. Driving home to the SF Bay Area from So. Cal on a hot summer day. Right rear tire fails suddenly and catastrophically with 2/3rds of the tread separating from the carcass.
