Tires Continental or MRF

Drove the car to pick up my daughter at the airport yesterday in the rain. Normally wouldn\u2019t do that but wanted to test the Conti wet traction. So far I\u2019m impressed. They\u2019re miles better than the stock Bridgestones

I put DWS 06+ on my 2016 GTI S at about 93,000 miles. At 142,000 I still have some tread left. They're far superior to the OEM Bridgestones (H rated? Seriously, VW?) I replaced those with TAs and they were pretty good, but the Contis are much better.

I have run Continental DWS 06 extreme contact all seasons on multiple vehicles and have been very impressed with grip. I would recommend these if you’re looking at replacements.

Not the 02 but I had a set of the Conti ECSs on my stage 1 MK7 R and loved them. Great wet traction, especially under power, and they were fairly quiet. I also have them on my current E92 M3 and they've stood up very well to two track days so far. Loads of dry grip.

I bought the Conti Sport 02's for my E63S and the grip is very good. If these can that much torque and weight, they should be a breeze with the R.

For summer i have been running continental extreme contact sports. They have been great and very grippy!

All season: Continental DSW06+

Summer: Michelin Pilot Sport 4S

Honestly though, the Continental’s held up great in summer too. Good in snow as well

Switched to DH SuperSoft Kryptotal Front w/o cushcore. Great setup. Conti DH weighs same as Assegai EXO+. More damped, faster rolling, great grip.

GuYs I have had a great experience with continental and I recommend they should be higher on this list.

The road noise is excruciatingly brain fuckingly loud

I just got these tires for my cx50 235/65/17 and I’m experiencing the same thing! City driving 50mph and under is great! High speed when it gets 60-65mph+ is where it feels shaky for me.
