Tires Continental or Uniroyal

The Conti Control Contact Sport A/S tire is one of the quieter tires out there and has excellent wet and snow weather traction. Being in Michigan, driving in the snow, this tire is better than almost all all-season tires in the snow. I highly recommend these for the Passat TDI.

Had good years on my '10 Routan. Meh. Very loud and very hard. Eventually purchased a set of Continentals -- oh my what a difference it made. I would not put anything else on the Routan. They look great and perform flawlessly. Highly recommended.

I have the Continental ExtremeContactSport DW and have been pretty happy with them for the price.

The Conti’s seem to be the best bang for the buck (as were the departed DW).

I liked the continental race king as a fast rolling trail tire, and if you were ok with something a little heavier duty, maxxis high roller 2s are a good choice for the front.

Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06. Fantastic all-around tire.

GM used to put Uniroyal Tiger Paws on their trucks, and I don't know what the number was, but it must've been high because those damn tires last forever and still looked brand new. I think I finally tossed them at 120K miles.

Conti DWS 06. Fantastic tire, helluva bang for the buck. Grippy, communicative, great in rain or dry, quiet, rides great. Running those on both my Passat, and on the wife unit's Fusion.

Conti ExtremeContacts are noisy. I have them on my Mazda5. The tires are especially loud when they are cold and moving at low speed. They feel like good tires and seem to wear well, but the noise factor alone makes me want to not keep them for too long.

My Conti's sound like a 4x4 going down the road
