Tires Continental or Kormoran

I’ve left extreme contact sport tires on my car down to about 25F a few times. No flat spots. I’ve driven in 33-35F and they definitely had way less grip, but I was careful and it was fine.

Lots of people have mentioned gp5k, which are very fast, but continental also sells "all seasons" tires which are kind of best of both worlds between gp5k and gatorskin. Not quite as fast as 5k, not quite as much protection as gatorskin, but very close on both counts.

Continental tires are a bitch to take off and put on. Otherwise, I do stand by their durability and reliability. They're great tires, Gatorskin or not!

Continental 4 Season is all I roll with due to surviving a rough +300km cycle with raw thread already exposed due to a severe break on rough ground and glass. Tough, grippy, all weather.

I switched to 5000's a while back and haven't regretted it. They definitely roll faster and corner better.

I run Conti gp 5000 AS TR and do like them a lot. They have quite allright puncture protection and run very good while still having very good grip even in wet conditions

They are actually a really solid tire in this category, not as good as the Continentals which are some of the best in their category of UHP all-season tires, but they come pretty close...

Gonna go with GP5Ks. Best optimization of any tire out there IMHO.

Very timely thread. I've been wondering what to put on the husband's car, Continental DWS 06+ or Michelin CrossClimate2.

Hit a pothole on the right side and replaced those with another brand (different from the stock Continentals, moved the Continentals to the front... and anything above 35 MPH the traction control light would flash. Anything above 55, I could very distinctly feel the car sliding all over the lane. It was very unsettling. I went back, returned the new ones, and bought the stock Continentals.
