Tires Hankook or Continental

I run conti dws06 on my gti here in the PNW they're great in the dry and wet!

About 800 miles on mine (2018 GSW S 4mo). Can only echo what others have said. Excellent dry traction, excellent in the rain, and based on limited snow darn good there as well! Very quiet with a firm, connected feel.

I’m running continental extremecontact dws06 on my rwd coupe.

Continental PureContact LS are probably the best performance all season. They have a 60k mile tread life, perform very well on dry and wet road, but they are a bit on the pricier side.

I did this ride the opposite direction in 2019 in late Summer. It is probably doable on 25mm. I did the ride on 28mm tires, continental grand prix (so barely any tread). The dirt sections are very hard packed gravel and I didn't have any issues even on muddier sections.

I've had good luck with Conti Pro Contacts in the past and am currently running the Conti Pure Contact. Also had a good experience with Pirelli P7 on a past vehicle.

The OEM Conti's get dogged pretty good on here, and they are not good if you want to tear around. They do cruise really nicely though, and I find them excellent in inclement weather. I am clearly going to get at least 60k out of mine minimum, so I'm considering them as replacements as well.

I went back with Continentals as replacements because I got 80k miles out of them.

I'll be running the same Continental Winter Contact SI on the explorer. They did fine last year for me.

My last two sets of tires were Hankook Ventus V2, which were okay (no idea how they are M+S rated) and a set of Continental ContiProContacts which I bought after several recommendations from friends and I will never buy another Continental tire in my life, they were terrible in almost every single way.
