nah those stock tires suck i blew out a tire after hitting a pothole
i got contis no pothole pops since
Just replaced my front toyos at 36k miles that had about 1mm of tread above the indicator (replaced with contis)
Did Michelin second and got 35,000 then did continental dws last fall.
I ran some Continental ExtremeContact Force for a year on my GRC. The only thing that killed them is when it got too cold here in FL "15 degrees in the winter" and the bands popped. Still had good tread and did 25k miles on them, 5 tracks days, tons of mountain roads while on road trips, and were pretty good on the road till the end.
Continental ECS2 are good on the street, comfortable and quiet, and more resistant to shoulder-chunking than Michelin PS4S on track.
I went with the Continental DSW06's on my WRX. Think I got them at Discount Tires for like $840. Absolutely fantastic tires and I might be putting them on my prelude next.
Last time i used re003 now currently using toyo tr1. They’re squarish & has pretty good grip.
I got Continental UltimateContacts from Can Tire, in 195/65/r15. The ride isn't really any better cause of the added weight but traction wise that have been amazing
The road hugger and kumho are pretty good budget tires. The continental is a nice high end model. And the sentury is pretty bad.
I had this issue with four new Continental PureContacts almost two years ago. I had one blow out the side wall from a small pothole. Had it replaced and that one got a bubble in the sidewall. Had that one replaced and that one and another original got a bubble. No potholes hit, correct psi, etc. DT replaced them all with Michelin Defenders. I've hit some bad pot holes in Dallas highways and they have held up strong. Apparently Continental has had issues with sidewalls being weak due to cure time. It's unfortunate because they were so quiet, great traction in the rain and comfortable. I don't think I'd risk going with Continental again.
