Tires Hankook or Continental

I've had great luck with the Conti LX on my V6. Excellent smooth & quiet road tire, and long wearing as well. My original Dunlops lasted 30K, the Conti LXs over 50K. This second set of LXs looks barely worn with the car at 100K.

The Continental Contisport Contact2s I've got on my Vette have been excellent tires

Best bang for the buck, Hankook W300 for me.

I have Hankook Ice Bear W300's on the Mazdaspeed 3 and I like them a lot. I actually first used them on the Miata. Not the most extreme winter tire but NJ has very mild winters and they behave a lot like an all season in the dry which is perfect for me.

The conti's stretch pretty hard, and I liked them when I ran em on the ginster.

I've run a couple of sets of Hankook Ice Bears: 225/40/18's on the stock MS3 wheels - My primary winter setup. The car performed wonderfully. Aside from being a plow at some points (my car is lowered), the traction control + LSD + snow tires made for a flawless snow driver.

the Contis are awesome in the dry and wet (and snow). Will defintely buy those again.

I may try these next season. I'm currently on my second season with a set of Hankook W404's, and I've been very happy with them. The dry handling/performance most likely falls short of the iPike's, but I believe the W404's provide a bit more snow and ice traction, which was my main concern.

I was going to buy Nokian summertyres but because they don't manufacture 205/45-16 size and 205/50 would have been too high I decided to try Hankook Ventus K102 cause my friend recommended them for me. They are not bad compared to how cheap they are and will last MUCH longer than for example GY F1.

my conti-extreme got quite loud after they had worn a bit, although they were badly cupped.
