Tires Continental or Nokia

The OEM tire is extreamly good! The first batch of BYD seal comes with Continential SC7. Its performance is close to PS4 and better than PS4 on wet days. I strongly recommend it. Though it costs more and tread wear fast, still worth it!

Same here. I’ve gone back to the Conti’s on my R after running the AS4’s. Outstanding all-around tire.

Never had a bubble on my DWS. Had several on my Michelins.

I've owned AS3's, AS3+, and PSAS4's. I've also owned DWS06 and DWS06+. I am partial to the DWS. I like a healthy 50/50 performance/comfort blend. DWS are that.

DWS06plus are wonderful: quieter than expected with excellent grip and ride. I have 25k on mine with absolutely nothing but praise--Maine winter snow and summer downpours are non issues.

I've had the Continentals on my '24 GLI since April or so, quiet, great traction, good handling.

I have a 2019 Golf R modded to the gills and run stock 19" VW rims with Conti Extreme Contact Sport Max Performance Summers and 17" Oz Racing rims with Conti Extreme Contact DWS06 Plus for cooler months. I have also run the DWS06 on my daily drive a 2015 Lexus CT200h all year around.

I have had great results with Continental Extreme contacts DWS 06 plus, and earlier versions, I have had more than 10 complete sets of 4 over the years on all my many VW's. Fantastic in rain, and great in all other conditions...great handling solid feel. Long tread life for a really high traction rating.

I only buy Continental touring tires. They're hard, and a bit noisy, but they hold up forever to highway driving.

No experience with the Continentals but I really did not like the Nokians. I bought them because they seemed to be well-reviewed, they were only marginally better than the Nexens in terms of traction yet they were a decent bit louder. Despite having plenty of tread left after 35k miles I replaced them with Michelin Primacy Tour and they’re so much quieter and the traction is much improved. I had a friend who is a frequent passenger in my car comment on how much quieter it was completely unprompted the first time he rode in the car after getting the Michelins. The Nokians were loud from the beginning and traction in wet conditions decreased rapidly as they aged.
