Tires Continental or Maxxis

I highly recommend swapping the tires out for GP5000s. I’m happy that I did it when I went to carbon wheels.

I had Extreme Contacts and loved them. I swapped my ContiProContact5s on my 24 S5 Sportback for Extreme Contact DWS06+ as I had them on my 17 Fusion Sport and absolutely loved them.

Blasted through a Salt Lake winter storm a few weeks ago with these. Were amazing on my S3 so I highly recommend. I'm very happy with the continentals though!

I’m on my second set on my Lexus GS350 and I love them. To me they’re just as quiet and grippy as the Michelin PS4S that came on the car but a little cheaper. I do think the continental wears a little faster but it’s almost negligible. They’re fantastic in the rain and dead quiet which were my main concerns.

I use Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 on my S4 and they are really good and comfortable tires. I switched from Pirellis because they were way too stiff. Great on smooth roads but shit on bumpy roads. In New England there are lots of bumpy roads...

I just put a set of AS-07's on my 2020 Altima. Compared to the stock Continental True Contacts they are definitely better as far as handling and in the rain and snow they are much better. They are also a little bit louder on the road and it's noticable but they really aren't that loud. I'd say that for the price they are very good.

Continental, performs like a Michelin for half the price.

I haven't had to change tires for my MX yet, but I have almost exclusively used Continental Extreme Contact DWS on all my other vehicles. Ever since I switched them up on my S2000 years ago. Used them on my 2 370zs, use them on my Nissan LEAF. I am a big fan of them.

I'm on my second set of maxxis and they're good for intermediate to hard stuff. If it's slippery out and I need to do a steep hill climb using momentum it's almost impossible, but I've never experienced a better softer tire yet so can't compare to anything else.

I've tried the Ardent in a 2.3 width as a rear tire, and wasn't a fan. It was prone to breaking loose easily in corners with little warning.
