Tires Continental or MRF

I recently swapped the Potenzas on my ‘24 IS350 F Sport to the DWS06+ and I love them a lot more than the Potenzas, way more grippier from my experience.

Eu am de 3 ani de zile pe una dintre masini, Continental All season Contact 2. Am facut drumuri la munte pe zapada, ploi de toamna si vara, mers in Austria, Grecia, Turcia la drum lung, rulate in București pe canicula si pot spune ca nu regret nicio clipa decizia luată. Nu este nicio diferență sesizabila intre un all season premium si o anvelopa dedicată de sezon.

Used to run the 7 which was incredible and the 8 is even better.

I love continentals. Had Apollo, Goodyear, Ceats and MRF and the Continental stood out the most. Amazing handling.

I have Continentals on my Nexon rn. They have already done 15k kms. Much better than the stock Bridgestones that I had. Noticeably less vibrations and noise. Zero punctures till date.

Are the Viking Contacts worth it? Yes. Are they the end-all-be-all for a minivan? No.

I also use MRF tyres and mine are running solid for 4+ years. I had 2-3 pinhole punctures which were all repaired eith that mushroom like thing.

I used to have winter tires that were much much worse than continental all seasons tires.

I just put the Enduro soft Kryptotal Fr and Re on and totally agree with your impression, they grip well but man are they noticeably slower than other similar tires. In my case Exo+ DHF and DHRs. I honestly don't know that the grip is worth it. I'm definitely not improving my time uphill or downhill.

I put a driveway stone through a continental tire. Never again. They have lost something. Used to be a good tire. Not any more.
