Tires YOKOHAMA or Continental

I have run DWS06+'s all year long on my dailies for years... They are unbeatable. I currently have a GR Corolla with them and it doesn't matter what season or what the conditions are... It crushes it.

I was running Conti ECS 02s on my just recently traded in 2022 GT RF and they were fantastic. Can’t wait to put those on my 2025 RF Club as soon as I need tires. Huge difference in both wet and dry. Coming from 2 sets on Michelin pilot sports and 2 sets of pilot sport 4s on my old Stage 3 8V Audi S3 and the Conti’s are very very similar to me in what I do as far as aggressive driving.

Yoko fleva v701 just got them on this year. Before that prev owner had rt660s. I only drive in warm conditions but may get caught in a bit of rain where I live. Backroads mostly.

I’ll put a vote in for conti extreme contact sports, the car feels so good on the 2 sets I’ve been through so far.

Only downside is that they seem to wear somewhat quickly, my last set only lasted me like 12k, but it being my fun car, it pretty much only sees fairly hard use

I got Yoko Fleva V701 in 205/40/17 since I have an MSM. For $100/tire installed it was hard to pass up.

I have a set on a Celica. Been driving in Melbourne weather and have yet to have a problem.

I would seriously consider the Yokohama Geolandar x-cv. I replaced the crap falkens around 31k miles, have about 22k on the yokos and they are fantastic. They also still look and drive new, probably will get 50-60k out of them. They ride very smooth

if you are looking for superior ride quality, Yokohoma does the job as well.

I put on Continental DWS06 tires in 245/40R18 and ran them the last 2 winters. They are good all around. But I feel they lack grip on sharp turns and don’t turn in as much as I would like (in snow). They aren’t fantastic on ice either. They are good if you are going to run one tire all year round. But after the wear to the point the “S” is no longer visible, I imagine the will not do great in the winter and you’ll have to replace them sooner.

I have 2 years of experience with Continental all seasons in Poland, and difference is insane. The car drives like shit tbh both in winter, and in summer comparing to winter/summer tires.
