Tires NITTO or Continental

Swapped from the continentals on my WRX last year and haven't looked back.

The conti pro contacts were factory on my wife's car and we've replaced them a couple times now. We've gotten 50,000 miles per set. You could run them longer, maybe another 10,000, but they start feeling a little splashy on the road before 50k.

Huge fan of the Continental DWS 06 Plus, had the prior non plus version for about 5 years on my supercharged MINI Cooper, and they were fantastic. The plus version is even better!

Conti extreme contact DWS are the ???? all season.

The Contienental tire, conti pro contact, has performed well in everything I've thrown at it. Not a great replacement for winter tires, but has handled all of my driving.

I got continental run flats on my Buick. 4 years old. I had a small hole patched up like 2 or 3 years ago, thats about it, they been holding up very well ever since.

I just went through this debate with myself and went for the conti DWS 06 plus tires. They are still brand new, but I'm happy with the choice. What swayed me to get these over the AS4s was more than one review mentioned that the AS4s had a "distinct road noise" that was ever so slightly noticeable when driving.

I’ve owned both AS4 and DWS 06 and would recommend the DWS 06 for your use case. better wear characteristics and more grand touring / balanced street comfort vs performance compared to AS4. AS4 is a fantastic tire - but I would only run it on a performance car like GTI, R. It was overkill on my Alltrack. I liked the ride on my GTI with AS3+ a lot though. I’ve ran the DWS06 on my gf’s JSW TDI for 3 years 30K miles now and they look new, barely any wear. I also live in Philly and the DWS are super forgiving in 235/45/17. Much more than the AS4’s I had in 235/40/18 on the Alltrack.

Long-time fan of Conti 4000's. Discovered the Conti 5000's were too tight to fit my previous wheelset, Mavic Ksyrium Elite UST.

Currently, pairing Pirelli PZero Velo 4S tubeless with HED Belgium Plus wheels. The Conti 5000's do fit and run well with the HED wheels.

Hit a pothole on the right side and replaced those with another brand (different from the stock Continentals, moved the Continentals to the front... and anything above 35 MPH the traction control light would flash. Anything above 55, I could very distinctly feel the car sliding all over the lane. It was very unsettling. I went back, returned the new ones, and bought the stock Continentals.
