My wife and I put about 5k miles a year (each) on GP 5000s with latex tubes, and absolutely love them. That combination is fast, comfortable, and very durable on our carbon rims. Last year we had 2 flats total between us, so to us, not worth the hassle of going tubeless. The GP5000s also last the full 5k miles before needing replacement. Very highly recommended!!
These are what I race on with latex tubes. They feel faster than 4000 IIs or Bontrager R3s with butyl.
I ride GP5000s (28mm) with latex tubes on my crit bike. Great grip, rolling resistance, and road feel with the right tire pressure.
I run these tubeless and they are the best tubeless for sure, zero fuss mounting, can use a standard pump and orange seal for sealant, if you can’t go tubeless your suggestion would be the next best thing. I’ve found them incredibly durable and a comfortable to ride on no matter the conditions.
The Continental DWS 06 were indeed better.
I've been very happy with the DWS06 for more than 100,000 miles.
I can recommend ExtremeContact™ DWS06 Plus . The stock falken are not even sedan tires and actually added from cx 5. I have noticed improved braking distance, no wheel spin due to low end torque, sharper cornering and better tracking, much improved grip in 1-3’’ snow and overall winter driving experience.
I had these installed on my 2016 GT last April:
Continental Extreme Contact DWS06
I don’t do much driving anymore (COVID work from home plus I drive my Miata when the weather is good) but over approx 10k miles I’ve been perfectly happy with them.
I had NeoGens (205/50r15) and liked the way they looked, and they handled great in dry weather... But would break loose in wet pretty easily. And while I had them I didn't notice the road noise until... I got some Continental ExtremeContact Sports (205/50r15) These guys have much less road noise, except at slower speeds where you can hear every single tiny rock and pebble tossed up in the wheel well lol. But they look fantastic and are incredible in dry AND wet weather!
I have a Genesis G80 with ProContact tx's on it and they're garbage. I'm on my second set after 3000 miles after MFG warranty. They caused vibrations and failed road force balancing.
