Tires Continental or Nokia

DWS06 is a really good tire and comes in a couple diff tread compounds so you can choose less performance for longer life. I’ve owned these tires on two different vehicles and the longevity was very good as was the snow traction for an all season tire.

I did the same but went with a nokian tire. Love that tire. nokian is amazing. My ride improved and road noise was reduced.

Continental extreme contact DWS06 on an Audi A5 I recently changed them from Bridgestone potenza s001. The Bridgestones were runflats and the new continentals are so much quieter and smoother and feel more grippy.

I run continental dws6 on my wife's mini.

Good choice. Continental ExtremeContacts are my favorite A/S tires. Even when compared to the Pilot Sport A/S 4.

I picked up a set of aftermarket rims and snow tires from Tire Rack and have been loving them for mountain trips and Local winter road travel.

I love my Seigla with Conti Race King 2.2 but there’s no doubt that it’s slower on the road than someone riding 40 mm tires.

I chose the WRG5 for my mom due to superior winter performance vs the CC2 and everything I have heard is that the CC2 is one of the louder tires-

I have Nokian Hakkapellita R5s on my winter-driven sports car and they are way too squishy and comfort-focussed.

That is the tread of my Nokain Hakkapellita tire, sitting on the side of the highway after blowing off the tire at highway speeds.

This is my winter car, a Subaru Impreza. Nokian Hakkapellita winter tires stay on the car year round, as it only gets driven in the winter months. The tires are 3 years old.

I decided to start the car up and take it for a drive one night in late September, thinking nothing of the tires. I made it about 15 minutes into my drive before BANG, my front drivers side tire tread completely disconnected from the tire, and the sidewall blew apart.

I was driving about 110km/h when this happened and the car almost rolled before I got it back under control.

When I went back up to retrieve the car the next day, the amount of dry rot on the tires was mind blowing. These 3 year old tires had completely dry rotted out over the course of the summer without me thinking to even have a look.
