Tires Pirelli or Continental

Got these yesterday can confirm they are way better then the pirellis so far

Smoother and quieter

I immediately felt the difference when it got cold and switched to Continental DSW 06 plus and they are spectacular.

If these tires are the only ones that meet your budget requirements then the continental is going to suit you best in my opinion, obviously you could spend more and get a better tire from Les Schwab or Costco, BUT again every budget has its own needs, personally Ive owned a vehicle with those continentals on it and it didn’t do bad in the rain and I didn’t overly notice road noise

Got mine from discount tire @ 10k miles. Didn’t get any snow with the oem Pirellis but can confirm the defenders are AMAZING in light snow (ATL). No regrets

I have those continental tires on my car right now and they’re really good

I'm a Conti guy, they're on both our cars. Premium brand, never let me down. I've run Kumhos in the past and they were good for the price.

Just installed these on my 22’s and way too early to speak to range but the grip is way better than the default pirellis (particularly on the snow we have had) though there is slightly more road noise

The best tire by far is Continental. No question. The Kumho is the only one I would even think of putting on a car.

Every time this gets shared, I feel obliged to say that the Superhard tyre was never brought to a race weekend. Makes you wonder why they developed that tyre in the first place.

F1 tires make me so angry this season. In at least 50% of the races they are waaay too durable, like you could do a 0-stop race. Because Pirelli are a bunch of cowards who are scared to death of races with 2 or more stops
