Tires MICHELIN or Continental

Trust me... okay... I know way too much about tires... my close friend is the owner of Wheel wiz... go for the Viking Contact 7... the only disadvantage is slightly slower braking on wet/dry/ice.... bad ice will take out literally any car... which means what? It's a driver's judgment error, or you should have avoided driving that day altogether. The continental tire is considerably quieter. it has the vibration and shaking. It will last longer. And when you're in SNOW it's actually much better than Blizzaks you will have the actual best lateral G control/turn-in out of any tire. You will have the best acceleration in any tire which translates to better fuel economy and being able to get out of the way of a slow-moving sliding vehicle faster in a sudden emergency maneuver getting movement going FAST can save the day. They really perform well in snow and they will be less expensive... just get continentals trust me and thank me later. much more enjoyable drive

I'm now running Michelin Power Cup TLRs for my road setup (similar to GP5000s) and I beat my fastest commute, my fastest long descent, and my fastest loop with hills handily. Before that I was running heavy commuter slicks.

I love my Conti Viking 7's. I'm in Eastern Ontario. Great in all conditions. Firm sidewalls...not marshmallowy(225 45 17). Low noise on bare pavement. Unreal treadware for a winter tire.

Best tires I’ve ever owned for all weather

Heard great things about the Michelin Pilot, I personally went with Continental ExtrmeContact DWS06+ and vast improvement on ‘19 GLI.

I’ve run several sets of PS4S on different cars and have my first set of DWS06 on my GTi, and I will say that they are very impressive so far. I’d say they give 85-90% of the performance of a PS4S

My 255/35R19 Michelin PS AS4s are pretty good, but I can tell a significant difference in traction between the AS4s and the S005s that came stock. Could also be that the 255s are pinched on the stock 19x8 wheels. This said, I think I can recommend them

Just got a set of these on (with 18x8 +45 wheels). Less road noise and a much smoother ride over the bumps. Highly recommend.

These are cool looking... notably the tires are not as good for street riding and you can replace them with those sweet michelin city grips. The brake pads are also not so thick on these so keep an eye on them.

I would stay away from the Pilot Sport A/S 3+. I put a pair on the back of my 15 E550 Coup. 4,000 miles and they were bald.
