Tires Continental or Shinko

We put Conti VikingContact 7 on the Passat last winter. They are fantastic. They've actually scared me more than once when I realized that I just drove thru stuff I should be careful on but never even noticed it.

I have the new VikingContacts on the AWD Alfa and they are even better. Both the Generals and Contis responded better at warmer temps, if that matters to you.

Continental. Had it for about a year now. Love them. Have had Pirelli and BFGs on previous cars but the Continental's are the best tire I've ever had.

I have Continental winter tires and am happy with them, but they are a bit expensive.

I have both currently and they’re both great tires

Continental DWS 06 or the new DWS 06 Plus that was released earlier this year is my go-to for all season.

Continental 4 Seasons are faster than Gatorskins while still having reasonable puncture protection.

With the Arteon, and some pretty sporty driving, I am about to replace all 4 tires on Wednesday, with around 32,000 miles - the fronts are right at the wear bars and the backs still have a touch more

I did switch out the stock rubber to DWS06 @ the 12k mark and lost a little on the responsiveness on the onset. Now, as the tires have warn, it has gotten a little better, but still not as nice as the stock rubber. Hope this helps.

My stock contis didn't last 20k miles which blows in my book and braking was not good. I'll probably fork out for Michelin mxm4 and be set for a few years.
