Tires Continental or NANKANG

Vikingcontact 7 — VERY good in snow and ice. Good in dry and wet.

Have had them since Friday and haven’t had any bad weather yet, but there is only just the slightest difference in dry handling performance from the stock tires. For me, a non-professional driver not driving on a track, it’s only just _barely_ noticeable.

Continental terrain contacts performed amazingly on my vw Touareg. Took them to Moab regularly and lived in summit county Colorado. So they saw plenty of slick rock and snow. Not the best cold weather tire, but one of the best all terrains in cold weather. Way better winter performance than my ko2s.

I'm a big fan of my Continental Terrain Contact A/T. They don't look aggressive as KO2s or Falkens, but they perform well off-road, wet conditions, and are quiet on the road. Have not tested them in icy conditions.

High Desert Nevada. Continental have gotten me through the big storms we get and numerous icy conditions. With the traction control on the Velos, they have worked great.

Continental SRS+ drive amazing in the rain, good grip around corners and ride quality is great

On our 07 wagon we did SPT wagon pink springs on KYBs, 16” Sparco Terra’s with Continental DWS tires. Full set of Group N bushings, Cobb intake/acessport/cat back.

IME/FWIW front to back & side to side is fine w/ the DWS06+ although never really had too much of a difference in wear side to side over many sets of them on several vehicles. Front to back has been the biggest difference in wear on my Mk 6, 8.5V S3, Alltrack, & Mk 7.5.

Installed 20" Continental Extreme Contact DWS06+

Improved ride and noise but not handling. More lean left and right.

Race kings were more durable but they sucked on cornering on switch back tarmacs. You couldn’t push them at all thru corners on pavement. I just found myself avoiding tarmac entirely with race kings.
