Tires Nexen or Continental

Get Roadstones which are made by Nexen. I use them on a remapped (300bhp) 3 litre diesel BMW and they are great in both the dry and the wet.

I just replaced the tires on my 2015 6 with Continental Extreme Contact DWS06s, and they are awesome. Quiet, good feel, a little less busy in the center (which makes them great for long miles on the freeway), and soooo much super confident grip.

Got 4 Continental Extreme Contact DWS06 about 3 months ago. The best tires i’ve ever owned. Complete shock compared to the OEM.

I quite like the continental doublefighter.

I had *Continental MaxContact 5* 2015 that lasted me 2016-2019. In 2020, I moved over to *Nexen N’fera AU7* (2019) on an extremely good deal. I’ll have you know, i’ve put down 90k highway kilometers on this rubber and it still drives great.

I've had both the DWS06 and now the AS4, I found the DWS06 a little quieter, felt like same performance in the dry, the AS4 is better in the rain (on my highways the DWS06 would hydroplane at 50mph) but slightly worse in the snow

got 78,000 on oem Continentals. Tire vendor thought I could still push for another 10,000 miles… In South Florida on mostly smooth roads.

I run Conti ECS, they are a performance street tire. It's what BMW M cars come with.

Been there, done that: 205/55-16 summer tires (Conti ExtremeContact DW) on steel wheels It was alright, sidewalls were a bit soft. Great for city driving, like Toronto, or better yet, Montreal, roads there are just terrible.

I'm not happy at all with the OEM Continental ProContact TX . I had a sidewall blowout (photo below) on I-40 in AZ with less than 1500 miles on the car.
