Tires Continental or Maxxis

I’m a Continental Michelin tire guy. I have the extreme contacts on my ZL1 camaro and they handle great for the buck.

These tires are way quieter, stiffer on turns and gives me slightly better range (was at 340kwh now at 300kwh)

Wear and tear on the track is tires and brake pads. My OEM Conti tires lasted 3 track days and 4650 miles, instead of the 10k miles they are rated for. Learn how to inspect your pads visually so you can see how much material is left.

I just did exactly what you're doing -- exact same tires -- and found the Continental every bit as good as the Michelin, so I went with Continental, only in 255s in my case. Anyway, I'm really happy with my Continentals and glad I made that choice. Considering the stiffer ride that comes with wider tires the 18 Continentals proved a good choice. The handling is way better; love it.

I was torn between these two myself but went with the dw06 because of all the reviews saying that the pilot sports wear out fast. The dw06 is quiet and great in the rain so I think I made the right choice.

Continental PureContact LS. Also have them on my A3 Etron. The tires were less expensive and have much better grip and handling. They also are quieter and longer lasting.

Why is Continental nowhere on this chart?

I have their tires in all my cars and they are pretty good

The front looks ok but I also just got contis and put them on even with some life left on my old specialized.

Normal GP5000s are great. Tubeless variant is a hell to get on the rim. To get tubeless tires on by hand, I go for Hutchinson tires

I had a set of Conti DWS tires that always vibrated -- at least 2 of them. I ended up replacing them all within 5K miles because two of the tires were shredded in a Home Depot parking lot -- they left a bunch of sharp metal on the ground in the back of their lot and, classic my luck, I found it. They ended up paying for new tires under their insurance but because it was a Subaru, I argued I needed to replace all 4 tires. Anyway, the new tires... no vibration anymore. It's one of the best unfortunate accidents I had, haha.
