Honestly for the price, I prefer Continentals. Similar ride quality to Goodyear but at a lower cost.

Pros: similar ride quality
Cons: wore pretty quickly

The Continental DWS series tires are very popular with this car. I've been running them for around 3 years now and have zero complaints. They are excellent in the rain.

Pros: excellent in rain, zero complaints

If you're interested in a good cheap winter tire the new Continental VikingContact 7's are super cheap on tire rack. I just got a set of four for $700 from Tire Rack and they handle great so far and are just as quiet (actually more so) than the stock 19's I had on before. Highly recommend them.

Pros: handle great, quiet
Cons: super cheap

I ordered the Continental PureContact LS. Reasonable prices (I think they were 240 a piece with installation, tax, and balance from Discount Tire). No noticeable impact to rod noise or range. Supposed to be very good in all weather conditions and have a 70k mile warranty. Very smooth ride and definitely notice better handling in rain and the light snow we’ve had here.

Pros: smooth ride, better handling
Cons: no impact to noise

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.

Pros: good feel, wear well
Cons: noisy, loud when cold
Vehicle: Mazda 5

I have never been a fan of Conti tires, especially anything with "ContiSport" in its name. They come OE on many German marques, and I can't for the life of me figure out WHY other than some smoking back room deal hammered out over loads of pharmaceuticals in the wee hours of the morning. My MK6 felt like a cement truck with its OE Contis. They would flat spot in what seemed like 120 seconds, noisy as all get out and lasted 1/3 of the claimed milage. Ive permanently deformed Contis on my old 05 E55 by just hitting a small chuck hole or bump. This is anecdotal evidence at best, but my money is on the tires being deformed, belt shift or what ever the excuse of the day is.

Cons: noisy, deformed easily, flat spot
