Tires Continental or NANKANG

They don’t seem to have got a mention yet, but the generally accepted ‘best track tyre for lowest price’ is the Nankang NS-2R. Right at the bottom of the price range for semi-slicks so obviously it’s performance isn’t at the same level as bigger brands semi-slicks, or eve Nankang’s own AR-1s (which most agree is a genuinely good semi-slick), but performs better on track than more expensive road/summer tyres in the dry.

i just got a set of continentals in june and i am in love. prior to this, i had dunlops (original set) and i think yokohama after that. i hated them both. slid in the rain all the time. came here for a recommendation and saw lots of praise for the contis. so glad i found them.

I'm very happy with the Contis!

I've had the Contis on my Hatch for two years now and they're worth every penny.

I loved conti 'der kaisers' they have huge paddles for braking, and 13 side knobs for every 11 maxxis side knob. They seem similar to a dhr2 with the whole paddle thing goin on...

Continental dws06-plus. Great value. Good tread life and they grip the road when you need it to

Conti PureContact here. Great all seasons, awesome in the rain.

Yep, another recommendation for the Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06+. I have these on my TT, and my son has them on his R32 and GTI. I really like them. My next tires for my Dodge will likely be these tires. They are great in the rain and dry, they're not loud, and they are decent in light snow, but they are certainly not snow tires.

Continental DWS06's have always had issues without being out of balance. This has been a criticism since they were introduced. That being said, they are probably the best all season tire for \"snow.\"

They are very squirmy tires, a poor choice for a sporty car IMO. I have a set of Michelin PA4 snows that are definitely better dry performers than the DWS. I purchased the DWS once for an Audi A4, but I returned them in less than a week.
