Tires Continental or Vredestein

I like em. And they ride way better than stock. Didn't have problems last winter but granted it's been a while since a true blizzard.

Oh, I'm also on my third set of tires. If you are looking for longevity for your tires, buy the Vredestein tires. They are the only tire I buy now and they are on all of my cars.

I bought continental sw06 extreme contact. I like them.pair on wife's tdi and the mk7.5 gti.not Michelin but they work all yr round.

Fahre seit 15 Jahren eigentlich nur noch Vredestein, Sommer wie Winter. Gut und günstig. Haben mir immer um die 80-90.000km gehalten!

Dws06 here. The rain grip is wow. The snow grip is snow tire like for me in Western NY where I need it. Dry grip is fine. Best all season tires I think I've ever had.

I got extreme contact dws06 on mine. I love them. Great grip in wet and dry conditions for 30% less than the Michelins. Super quiet too

Vredstein Wintrac Pro. They are great ran them 5 months last season and they still look brand new. Ride great in the snow as well, had my 328xi coupe out in 6 inches of fresh snow in the ground and still coming down and they never slipped or had trouble stopping.

I don’t have an S5. I have an A7. I had the Pirelli’s just put the Continental DWS06 Plus on and in my opinion, they ride way better.

The SportContact 6 have been disappointing in a few areas: poor rolling resistance, high wear, and noticeable road noise. I’d like to improve on those aspects while keeping good wet grip. I don’t mind a bit less dry handling — the SportContact 6 are insanely good there, but I’m not tracking the car, so that level of performance isn’t really necessary for public roads.

We’ve had a HORRIBLE experience with Vredestein tires. We put them on my son’s Acura TSX, and 20,000 miles later all four are shot and need to be replaced. The front two are BALD. And by “bald” I mean BALD all the way across the tire.
