Tires Continental or Shinko

Continental Tires

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

Pros: excellent traction, great performance
Cons: less treadwear, more expensive
Vehicle: Ford

Shinko Tires

I switched to the shinko 244 front and have loved the d606 rear combo. It dives into the corners on the road and will give you about 80% confidence on the dirt.

Pros: dives into the corners

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.

Pros: Continentals top rated, Michelin very good wet
Cons: Hankooks awful
Vehicle: Volkswagen

+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.

Pros: great wet and snow grip
Cons: hurts range

Continental DWS06+ is my choice after a lot of research.

This is on a Performance where I like traction. It is quiet and efficient.

Pros: quiet and efficient

Recently replaced my worn out 18 inch Primaxys (36000 miles) with the Continental DWS06s. It looks like a 5-10% efficiency drop versus the stock tires. I think they are a little quieter on the highway though. Bumps do have a reverb sound the stocks didn't have.

Pros: little quieter on highway
Cons: efficiency drop, reverb sound
Mileage: 36000 km

the Contis (ContiProContact NON Eco Plus) that came stock on my '14 Jetta were utter crap. Couldn't balance them despite multiple shops and Road Force, etc. Replaced with el cheapo Hankooks and it was like a new car, smooth as silk.

Pros: smooth as silk (Hankook)
Cons: unbalanceable, utter crap (Conti)
