Tires MICHELIN or Continental

Continental extreme contact I think is what my bf has on his little Audi sedan, and we got thru last winters blizzard with ease. All I know is they are hard to squeal cause they won’t slide!

I have them on my MK6 Jetta and they are the best tires I’ve ever had in the rain. NJ winters are no problem for them either. Good luck ????

I’ve exclusively run PS A/S4 on basically all my most recent cars — it’s truly a do it all tire for someone who needs to be able to get somewhere in freezing temperatures but has another car that can do winter duty a bit better. Never thought they were noisy on either my CLK550, BRZ, WRX, CTR, SS 1LE, and now ITS.

Yeah I too have ran both Michelin AS3+ and PSAS4, and 2 sets of Continental DWS06 (the original and another set of the "Plus") and I choose the DWS06 since they are a little more comfort oriented, a little less summer performance oriented. Have not had any real complaints about any of them, besides maybe my AS3+ getting noisy as they wore down but they dont make or sell those anymore so it's a moot point. Love the treadlife on the DWS06.

I've run the Michelin AS3+ and the Conti DWS06+ , I greatly preferred the DWS06+ in daily driver situations. They were softer riding, and felt much more confident in the rain/snow and were fantastic with evacuating water. The Michelin were better as a performance tire in the spirited drives and such, but for me that was .5% of the time and I never regretted the Conti's. I've never had a long term positive experience with Pirelli tires and personally wouldn't purchase a set.

I’ve had the DWS06+ on a couple of cars now and they were great, no complaints. Good grip in wet/dry/light snow and not noisy.

It has been my go to tire for last 8 years. Very happy overall, but I also dont have any experience with other brands you mentioned. I like them, "if it is not broke dont fix it" mentality

I've had Michelin PS AS3+ on the C300 4Matic, Conti DWS06 on the E46 M3, Michelin PS AS4 on the E46 M3, Bridgestone RE-980AS on the E550 and Michelin PS AS4 on the E550. Main reason I haven't gone back to the Conti is twofold- one, they're not much cheaper than the Michelins if you buy the Michelins on sale at Costco; two, I have to use an alternate tire dealer and I've had good luck with Costco in general.

I had commander 2s on my V-Star 650 and commander 3s on my Road Star. They perform pretty similarly in my opinion. My only gripe with the 3s is that they get this harmonic resonance at certain speeds. I thought my engine was having a fit. Turns out it wasn't the engine, the 3s just like to hit that sweet spot and send vibrations in waves. It's hard to describe.

Everything negative said about the TX is true. They're shockingly bad and unworthy of the Continental brand. I upgraded to DWS06+; these are probably the best or second-best Conti-branded tire available in this market (USA+CDN).
