Recently switched from Generals to Contis Posted by NCCaniac [Email] (#352) [Profile/Gallery] (more from NCCaniac) on Thu, 2 Jun 2022 11:20:42 In Reply to: Re: Looking for New Tires, Boris Bubbanov, Thu, 26 May 2022 12:20:57 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I had been running General AS-3s on my 2008 9-5 Sportcombi daily driver, and liked them well enough, but they had a fair amount of road noise and seemed to wear out faster than the tread rating, so on my last change I switched to Continental Extremecontact DWS 06 Plus. Those are W rated, but so far I like them a lot better than the Generals. They are quieter and although the ride felt different at first ("softer" than the the Generals), they still handle and stop well in all weather. I will see how long the tread lasts, but so far they seem to be wearing at an expected rate.
