Tires Continental or Shinko

Continental Tires

2000 miles on them so far. No punctures yet and I ride through terrible roads and potholes. I have noticed the back tire being slippery on wet roads like people mentioned but I don't ride in the wet.

Pros: no punctures yet
Cons: slippery on wet roads
Mileage: 3218 km

These are bomb proof tires. the sidewalls are substantial and the tread is solid. However, they are "sluggish" in that these are not particularly lively tires. On my faster road bike, they dramatically killed the responsive feel of the bike.

Pros: bomb proof tires, solid tread
Cons: sluggish, killed responsive feel

Just upgraded from the stock Toyos to the Continental DWS06+, first time I’ve went for some premium tires and the difference is night and day. The way you feel planted to the ground is next level compared to stock, even more so in the rain.

Pros: planted to the ground

Trust me... okay... I know way too much about tires... my close friend is the owner of Wheel wiz... go for the Viking Contact 7... the only disadvantage is slightly slower braking on wet/dry/ice.... bad ice will take out literally any car... which means what? It's a driver's judgment error, or you should have avoided driving that day altogether. The continental tire is considerably quieter. it has the vibration and shaking. It will last longer. And when you're in SNOW it's actually much better than Blizzaks you will have the actual best lateral G control/turn-in out of any tire. You will have the best acceleration in any tire which translates to better fuel economy and being able to get out of the way of a slow-moving sliding vehicle faster in a sudden emergency maneuver getting movement going FAST can save the day. They really perform well in snow and they will be less expensive... just get continentals trust me and thank me later. much more enjoyable drive

Pros: quieter, better lateral control
Cons: slower braking

I love my Conti Viking 7's. I'm in Eastern Ontario. Great in all conditions. Firm sidewalls...not marshmallowy(225 45 17). Low noise on bare pavement. Unreal treadware for a winter tire.

Pros: great in all conditions
Cons: firm sidewalls

I personally have gotten over 90k on a set of 4. I would’ve gotten more but I really like driving the family around safely! I had almost 1/8 of an inch before the tread wear indicators were visibly there. But the safety letter near the outer wall was almost gone.

Pros: lasted over 90k miles
Cons: safety letter almost gone
Mileage: 144841 km

I replaced my Ecopia’s with Continental CrossContact LX25 and loved them! They were quiet, wore slowly, great in all conditions (especially rain, snow, and ice)

Pros: quiet, wore slowly

The Conti’s were smooth, but their steering feel was just too soft and mushy for me, if that makes sense. The Michelins are a perfect balance, I feel.

Pros: smooth
Cons: soft and mushy

This weekend I had to pay tire discounters to remove the foam from all 4 of my tires because it was coming off and causing unbalanced tires. These tires aren’t good.

Cons: unbalanced tires, foam coming off
