Tires Continental or OEM Volkswagen

I have the SL4 with the the 51’s and gp5000 32c”s. I highly recommended, I’m glad i spent the extra for pro’s and I’m also glad I went with the deep rims instead of the 37’s. It’s plenty fast and I’m really pleased with the setup.

If you really want a budget tire I’d recommend the Continental extreme contacts... I have them on my R for daily driving and they’ve been great. I’m right around 494 WHP and they have excellent traction in a straight line and turning. It’s actually pretty hard to get them to spin

Conti Extrem contat DWS 06 + Been using them in several sets on many VW's great water and grip, long lasting with great traction tire rack, 2 year road hazard, cus our roads suck, I took out one in a giant crater on teh NJ Tpk (and ya PAY high tolls for a **** road) tire rack hazard covered it, new tire next day check a wek later, had VW dealer mount and balance $16...all better

Overall the I found the GTI was very impressive at a track that doesn't cater to FWD and with terrible 560tw all seasons.

40k for me, bought the slightly bigger continental lx 25. Never looked back.

Just put the Continentals on my '19 GLI. Happy with them so far. they are top rated by Tire Rack customers. Replaced Michelin Pilot Sport which was very good on wet roads. Dumped the Hankooks not long after buying the car. Awful tires.

Been using Contis for many years now.They are excellent and not too pricey for most common sizes.Great all-arounders

+1 for CC2’s.

Great all around tire on my M3 LR AWD 19” w/Boost in every area except range.

Sure it’s not a racing tire, but compared to the OEM Conti’s the wet and snow grip is sooo much better. Dry grip is almost as good. Durable, comfortable, great wear.

I have Conti-Extreme Contact DWS06's on her from fall-spring (right now I have summers on.) today the temps were at around 57* and they were most certainly squirrely until they warmed up. They are a good overall tire but they will break loose (both all season and summer) if you have enough HP. they're a good all season tire. but I wouldn't push them to the limits. they are predictable also and I've pushed them in the corners with satisfactory handling.

I replaced them with more expensive Conti TS810 RFT. *Big mistake*. They ride like a rock, I expected more from updated run-flat tires.
