Tires Continental or Kumho

New tires are Continental CrossContact LX25 - researched with my very loyal and reliable mechanic. Fingers crossed these wear better.

If you are looking for something cheaper,

Kumho Majesty 9 solus can also be an option

Their noise around the same level as top brand grand tourinf tires... like pirelli p7 as 3 or micherlin mxv4, continental pure contact.

very good at dry weather and acceptable at wet,

ride quality is good, but soso steering response.

Snow traction is vevevevery bad with this tire, almost the level if summer tire,but its georgia.

personally, I liked it.

I’m using this as my daily and it sees no track time, so I like to keep it fun, while also not making my wallet cry. DCC: 2 right from comfort Drivetrain: Eco Engine sound: Sport ACC: Eco Steering: Sport

Continental contact urban in 2” or 2.2” Feels as fast as my race king black chili for half the price

Continental double fighters have been doing me good for nearly a year! Like 1.9 inch tires and have a good amount of grip but roll nice too

Continental race kings. The black chili blend is faster. 1.9 and 2.2 inch options. Fantastic tires

I decided to swap the OEM Kumho tires for a set of CC2s with just 350 miles on the car.

My butt sensor says the CC2s ride a lot more softly than the OEM Kumhos. The ride feels more compliant and less sharp over potholes, expansion joints, etc. I find the CC2's ride to be noticeably better than the Kumhos. The CC2s also solved 90% of the steering wheel vibration issue.

Continental contact speed is a cool looking cheap option.

I only buy continentals. I'd advise you do the same. I've had kumhos before but they were meh.

I would pass. I had these on my Z3. They were great at first, but got stiff really quick.
