Tires OEM Audi or Continental

They’re good tires, the best tires I’ve ever had were Continentals, but these feel solid.

I run conti dws06 on my gti here in the PNW they're great in the dry and wet!

I’m running continental extremecontact dws06 on my rwd coupe.

Continental PureContact LS are probably the best performance all season. They have a 60k mile tread life, perform very well on dry and wet road, but they are a bit on the pricier side.

I did this ride the opposite direction in 2019 in late Summer. It is probably doable on 25mm. I did the ride on 28mm tires, continental grand prix (so barely any tread). The dirt sections are very hard packed gravel and I didn't have any issues even on muddier sections.

I've had good luck with Conti Pro Contacts in the past and am currently running the Conti Pure Contact. Also had a good experience with Pirelli P7 on a past vehicle.

The OEM Conti's get dogged pretty good on here, and they are not good if you want to tear around. They do cruise really nicely though, and I find them excellent in inclement weather. I am clearly going to get at least 60k out of mine minimum, so I'm considering them as replacements as well.

I went back with Continentals as replacements because I got 80k miles out of them.

My MKVI came with the Continental Procontact tires. I have 37k miles on them and found that after 30k miles, the noise, especially on concrete got pretty loud. The ride was relatively good and not too stiff though.

My stock contis didn't last 20k miles which blows in my book and braking was not good. I'll probably fork out for Michelin mxm4 and be set for a few years.
