Tires Toyo or Continental

For a 2020 Fit in Chicago, the Continental TrueContact Tour is the single best choice great comfort, really solid rain/slush grip, and perfect for small hatchbacks; I’ve run them on a similar car and they felt planted without being harsh.

The Toyo snow tires on my car have been awesome. I kinda used them all season because the grip was just too fun. Somehow have lasted nearly 30k miles with a third of the tread left too, and I drive my WRX spirited on curvy roads a lot.

Snow tires make a car with decent grip in the snow into great grip in the snow. Especially in the slushy slop.

The only downside with the Toyos for me is slightly worse handling on highways...they like to wander. But everywhere else they're better, esp off-road. Never hear them slipping on anything. Quiet vs Pirellis. Same or maybe slightly better efficiency than Pirellis too, if you get SL rather than LT. It'll be a little worse with the LT.

I've had the Toyo's for a week and really like them so far. Efficiency is equivalent to stock 20's, and they are more aggressive.

I had 255/85/16 toyo m/ts and they handled great in a snow storm that dumped unexpectedly. Im definitely getting them again. They look great too and aren't that loud

I love the look of a bit wider tire and the Conti’s are awesome in wet conditions.

I had the Toyos on a different truck. Liked them a lot.

I would lean towards Toyo OC AT3 EV (SL). There is more user data available for it, showing equal or nearly equal efficiency result compared to factory Pirelli Scorpion AT Plus.

I run 315/30/18 ECF on my C5 base. I’m about 30 cycles in and they’re starting to die. They’re a good tire that gets up to temp pretty quick and last the whole session. That being said, they aren’t worlds grippier than the 275 conti ecs i replaced.

Conti’s are the most fragile tire. Sidewall bubble will show up for potholes you don’t even recall hitting.
