Tires Continental or Maxxis

Maxxis Tires

I’m 84 kg, use Maxxis tires with an 2.5 Assegai EXO+ tire up front and a 2.4 DHR II DoubleDown casing in the rear. I ride and race reasonably hard/fast. I’m using 22/23, but when I have an EXO+ casing out back I have to up that a couple psi to keep from denting my rim.

Pros: good grip, hard/fast riding
Cons: rim denting

Continental extreme contact I think is what my bf has on his little Audi sedan, and we got thru last winters blizzard with ease. All I know is they are hard to squeal cause they won’t slide!

Pros: easy blizzard navigation, no sliding
Vehicle: Audi

Yeah I too have ran both Michelin AS3+ and PSAS4, and 2 sets of Continental DWS06 (the original and another set of the "Plus") and I choose the DWS06 since they are a little more comfort oriented, a little less summer performance oriented. Have not had any real complaints about any of them, besides maybe my AS3+ getting noisy as they wore down but they dont make or sell those anymore so it's a moot point. Love the treadlife on the DWS06.

Pros: comfort oriented, good treadlife

I've run the Michelin AS3+ and the Conti DWS06+ , I greatly preferred the DWS06+ in daily driver situations. They were softer riding, and felt much more confident in the rain/snow and were fantastic with evacuating water. The Michelin were better as a performance tire in the spirited drives and such, but for me that was .5% of the time and I never regretted the Conti's. I've never had a long term positive experience with Pirelli tires and personally wouldn't purchase a set.

Pros: softer riding, confident in rain/snow

I’ve had the DWS06+ on a couple of cars now and they were great, no complaints. Good grip in wet/dry/light snow and not noisy.

Pros: great grip, not noisy

It has been my go to tire for last 8 years. Very happy overall, but I also dont have any experience with other brands you mentioned. I like them, "if it is not broke dont fix it" mentality

Pros: very happy overall

I've had Michelin PS AS3+ on the C300 4Matic, Conti DWS06 on the E46 M3, Michelin PS AS4 on the E46 M3, Bridgestone RE-980AS on the E550 and Michelin PS AS4 on the E550. Main reason I haven't gone back to the Conti is twofold- one, they're not much cheaper than the Michelins if you buy the Michelins on sale at Costco; two, I have to use an alternate tire dealer and I've had good luck with Costco in general.

Pros: better comfort, better breakaway communication
Cons: not as good in dry
Vehicle: BMW

I'm at 4 sets of XL rated Conti DWS06+ now between 2 sets on my former '13 Golf R & the sets currently on my '20 S3 & '17 Alltrack & I've loved them for year round true all season use. Never used them on a 2WD vehicle but absolutely zero complaints on my Haldex equipped rides I've had them on in dry/wet/snow/ice/slush, hot/temperate/cold.

Pros: loved for all season, zero complaints

I love how lightweight and supple the DTH are. Really fast, even though they're quite baloony. But they are one of the worst tires when it comes to puncture protection: I already knew that they're prone to flats when I rode the 37-451 Silkworm version. But the 26" MaxxPro version is just as bad. Tiny glass shards find their way to the tube as if they went through butter.

Pros: lightweight and supple, really fast
Cons: poor puncture protection
