Tires Continental or VITOUR

My brother has dsw06s on his Focus RS. They're awesome tires but have a short lifespan. I got Conti PureContacts and haven't had a single complaint, they've never lost traction or hydroplaned (not for lack of trying), and are quiet except on perfectly smooth pavement.

I like my DWS06+ set. Not terrible in snow and pretty good in rain.

DWS06+ user here. Amazing tires, especially in the rain.

The stock kinergys are quite bad new and once they start approaching 1/2 life left, became honestly dangerous in the rain from my experience. I replaced them with Continental Extreme Contact DWS06+’s well before the tires were worn out and haven’t looked back. 100% worth it.

Also, I run Continental Race Kings in 29x2.2.

I moved to the Vitour P1 last season. They're finally sanctioned this year. But more than that, holy hell do they last forever.

Nothing faster (they're on par with the a052). And yet... They last.

I did five events and 6,500 miles street and there's hardly any wear. As in, there's an etched swordfish logo on the tread block that's not even 1/32 deep and it's still visible!

I ran them in the remnants of Hurricane Helene (NC here) and had no issues even on the highway. Their cheesy named "water laser" technology seems to actually work.

I’ve been very happy with the Continental TrueContacts on two different cars. Good tread life and performance.

Also I live in the Northeast, around Philly, so I needed something with decent all season traction. Conti has been great. And very good wear rating .

I have DWS06+ on the Marauder and Michelin PS4's on the Kia. The Conti's are quiet and grippy, but I'm noticing they are cracking in between the tread, and they're not that old. I don't have enough seat time to judge the PS4's on my Kia, plus with them being the OEM tire, they may suck worse that regular, non OEM versions.

I was desperate to find something to replace my GP5000's after they got their 6th puncture in the space of 4 months of riding. Threw them in the trash.
