Tires YOKOHAMA or Continental

I ride similar conditions. Went from a MaxGrip DHF to a Kryptotal. Really happy with the Conti’s

AD09 was a fair bit faster and clearly had more outright grip. They were much less communicative and harder to drive and keep at the limit. I found they can be overdriven and may overheat more easily too. Grip levels were great though - they were even faster than my AR1s. The main issue is wear. They just don't last very long.

In my experience, which has been all heavier “horsepower” cars in the 3400-3800lb range, the best all seasons were Continental Extreme Contact DWS06. No chunking, but they do feather at the edges.

I've got Continental Viking Contact 7's on my AWD M3 and they're also fantastic.

I currently have Continental CrossContact XL 20 in. tires on my 2020 Buick Enclave. These are OEM tires that I was skeptical of since I usually prefer Michelin tires. These Continental tires are rated at 60K miles but currently have 63,000 miles on them and don't need to be replaced yet. They are quiet and grip well.

Yokohama Geolandar G015 for the win. Amazing on road manners and fantastic aired down performance with the LT variant

I haven't tried the Vittoria N.EXT, but I've ridden the GP5000 tubeless since they released around 6 years ago. My wife has been on the inner tube version. Great tyre, amazing grip, even in the wet, and very fast. I've also never had a flat. The only thing is they don't last super long - I reckon about 3-5000 km depending on your weight.

Hankook Ventus S1 evo3. Will not feel bad about using them for autox or track. As I picked up the cars after snow hit the ground, I took delivery with Conti VikingContact 7, which are pretty quiet.

I currently have the Continental Sport Contact 5 SSR tires. They were what CarMax put on when I bought it. I don’t care for the run flat technology as my insurance covers towing as well as I have a plug kit and portable compressor in my car if it’s not bad enough for those to handle it. I was looking at the Kumho LX Platinum KU27 but really don’t know much about the specifics of tires. Looking for advice on my current choice and/or recommendation. Thanks!

I have owned a lot of new cars over the years but the Continental tires on the Arteon are the worst. I have replaced 3 tires over 3 years due to bulging in the sidewall.
