Tires Toyo or Continental

Continental Tires

I got 205/55/15 Continental ContiExtreme Contact from Tire Rack. I think they were $68/tire. Best all-season performance tire for the price. Great dry,wet, and snow traction.

Pros: Great dry, wet, snow traction

Precisely the reason why I looked for the Conti's on my quiet, silky smooth ride new car. Until I ride in someone's car with better ones, I'm happy.

Pros: quiet, silky smooth ride

my new car, the white love wagon II , came with the conti's but I haven't even begun to break them in, or the engine for that matter with less that 200 mi on the car......but in my first impression the conti's seem quieter that the mxv4 pluses......

Pros: seem quieter
Mileage: 321 km

Another case of 'ignorance is bliss' perhaps, but I'm favorably impressed with my Conti's (8600 miles since new on 9/11) for quietness, ride, and traction (wet/snow).

Pros: quietness, ride, and traction
Mileage: 13840 km

I think the Contis get bashed because they look skimpy and performance leans towards comfort and quiet. I have driven 4000 miles in various conditions and can't complain. They've never squealed, skidded, growled or aquaplaned and they give a silky smooth ride.

Pros: silky smooth ride
Cons: look skimpy
Mileage: 6437 km

I've run Toyo RA-1s and thought they did a fine job, although I never did better than 2.1. With more launches under my belt, my Dunlop SP8000s have performed as well.

Pros: did a fine job
Cons: never did better than 2.1

With regard to tire pressures, btw. I'm running T1-S in a 245/45 16 size on my S6 wagon, with 36 pounds of pressure in each tire. I started out at 34, and picked it up to 36.

Pros: Good tire pressure
Vehicle: Audi S6

I certainly hope they've improved them since '99, because mine were definitely Craptinentals. It was like driving on roller skates.

Cons: like driving on skates
