Tires Falken or Continental

Continental Tires

Continental DoubleFighter - More pavement friendly but works on singletrack. This is my current choice for riding the Ohio to Erie Trail which is mostly paved surface.

Pros: pavement friendly, works on singletrack
Cons: null

I have the Wildpeak AT3. So far I like them. A couple MPG drops but worth in the end, especially now that snow has come. Stock tires were ass

Pros: worth it in end
Cons: MPG drops

I run continental Dws06+ year round and have yet to have any issues in the wet or snow. I also push the car quite hard in the summer time and they grip pretty well.

Pros: good grip, no issues

2. Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06+

These were the two options I considered and ended up getting the first one at Discount Tire. It was the cheapest option. I just got em last month.

Rating 5.0

I’ve put about 15,000 miles on a set of these. They’ve been great. Grip is great for winter tires and did well in some snow. The tread still looks great after 15k miles too, so should last you a long time.

Pros: great grip, long lasting
Vehicle: Toyota
Mileage: 24140 km

If you’re really worried about it, Falken Wildpeaks are the GOAT for All Terrain tires with very very good performance in wet and snow

Pros: very good performance

These tires do not have the same level of grip that the Tempesta P1, RE-71RS, A052s, etc. have, so do not buy these thinking you'll be competitive, because you probably won't be.

Besides that, lets start with the good sides of this tire.

-Very consistent. They do not lose grip even as they get hot, nor do they lack a ton of grip when they're cold.

-Fantastic treadwear. These will definitely last you a couple seasons at the very least. They hold their grip well throughout the entirety of the tread range.

-Responds well to inputs. While these don't have the pure grip of a super 200 tire, they respond well to inputs and are eager to change direction when you need to.

Now lets get to the bad.

-VERY unpredictable. If you start hearing even slight tire squealing, you are right on the limit of grip. These tires snap out from under you easily if you're not careful or don't know the characteristics of these tires.

-Like I said before, these lack a lot of grip compared to the super 200s, but thats kinda something you should expect when buying these tires.

Overall, I'd give the RT615K+ a solid 7/10. They're not very competitive but they're a lot of fun, they're a great tire to learn on, they offer good value in the longevity department, but they're unpredictable compared to some other tires.

Pros: very consistent, fantastic treadwear, responds well to inputs, good value, great to learn on
Cons: lack grip, unpredictable, snap out easily, not competitive
Part number: RT615K+

Just put on a fresh pair of Kryptotals on Bontrager tubeless ready rims. Took 4 hours and 7 plastic tire wrench’s to get both tires on. Getting them to seat wasn’t too bad.

Pros: getting them to seat wasn’t too bad
Cons: install took 4 hours
