Tires Falken or Continental

The Continental DWS 06 were indeed better.

I've been very happy with the DWS06 for more than 100,000 miles.

I can recommend ExtremeContact™ DWS06 Plus . The stock falken are not even sedan tires and actually added from cx 5. I have noticed improved braking distance, no wheel spin due to low end torque, sharper cornering and better tracking, much improved grip in 1-3’’ snow and overall winter driving experience.

I had these installed on my 2016 GT last April:

Continental Extreme Contact DWS06

I don’t do much driving anymore (COVID work from home plus I drive my Miata when the weather is good) but over approx 10k miles I’ve been perfectly happy with them.

You can't beat Bilsteins, if that's the problem. In my experience tires make a difference. Falken Sincera A/S250 is an exceptional tire.

Put some Wildpeak AT3s on my ‘03 4Runner last Spring, putting them to the test this Winter in Michigan, and I absolutely love them.

Have had the Wildpeaks now for a full year. They are really great in snow and rough weather conditions. That said, my truck did drop over 3mpg after the switch from the stock Kevlar Goodyears.

I barely have to put my truck into 4wheel in snow now that I switched to Wildpeaks. The amount of grip compared to the stock tires is insane. Also pretty quiet and my mpg’s only dropped for city driving, same mpg’s for highway.

I had the continental contipro contacts on my car for around 6 years. They were good tires, they worked on dry roads and in the snow about as effectively, their rain grip was a little questionable, but what I really hated about them was how fast they wore out.

Car is terrible with stock Falken tires. It goes OK, but stops terrible. I was actually suprised when I took mine out for the first time in the snow. Slide down the hill.
