How’re the cross climate 2s not the premium Michelin tire?

I love how you’re just so comfortable while drifting through the snow and having casual conversation 😂
i grew up racing different kinds of 4 wheelers / (atvs’s). I find that it has made drifting in cars as i’ve gotten older seem like second nature - muscle memory.
it is too easy for a lot of people. he is very good at it.
I can't get enough of this channel.
I thought it was just me. Even if I'm not looking at tyres currently, it's so good to be educated on the status of the best and worst tyres. I'll watch it anyway, especially due to this presenter. He's the best
Thanks guys
dude! Samesies
Guess you can say you'll never be "Tyred" of it.
Love it !🎉
Thank you for doing these videos, incredibly useful and important to those who place an importance on what keeps our cars glued to the ground!
THANK YOU!! I've been waiting for your '06Plus inclusion, and happy to see it here.
Hope you enjoyed it :)
The videos are amazing, Seamlessly going from snow,to wet, to dry as if it’s filmed same day same week is amazing.
Thanks! Barely the same year for this one!
I use to love Pirelli for my summer grip tire. I use Michelin now
The best comprehensive tire reviews for real people. Just enough information without being too much to digest. Thank you.
Great to see the updates!!
Last summer I put the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S4 on my E350 - my favourite tires I’ve had on my car. Thanks for the suggestion!
You have the best tire reviews on UA-cam and probably the entire Internet. Thank you for taking time to focus on this, test, and share the results.
Glad you like them!
Congratulations you have been selected among our shortlisted winners 🎁💐
Telegram the above username so we can sort this out…
As always, you're the best tire review man. Keep them coming, love it!
I love watching your videos man, i’m not a car enthusiast, but i love driving. When i bumped into your videos, i started gaining knowledge and interest in vehicle parts and etc.
And btw, yes. Bridgestone has been my go to tire, it is my preferred brand as i haven’t encountered any problems with it in my HT and AT tires on my truck. It is quite sturdy and durable and it is great in Highway and Wet Roads. As the other preferred other brands for off road, i like my Bridgestone as i was never stuck nor punctured.
Thanks man!
Great review! The format and video is very professional and concise. Based on watching this I just ordered the Michelin Pilots for my Acura TSX.
A friend who has the same car bought the Continentals so I look forward to doing our own back to back comparison. Tires are so important yet they are so compromised in their qualities it's impossible to know how they perform based on expectations, vehicles, climate, etc.
Your reviews make it enjoyable and educational to understand the differences. Thank you again.
How are both of you guys liking your tires so far? Debating on the two for my car right now
The Michelin Cross Climate 2 did very well in snow traction and handle great and great dry breaking. They now make them in lower profile in all sizes.
I fitted the a/s4 on my legacy before summer, and it is so sure footed I feel like I'd need beefier stabilizers to take better advantage of tire's capability. Car is glued to the road, turns great and quite frankly, I had not managed to make them squeal around corners yet even if content of the cabin is getting tossed around lol! No usually I don't drive like I stole it, so after the season and few thousands of kilometers there is literally no apparent wear showing. Won't drive them in winter as I have dedicated winters waiting, but after watching this it almost is tempting to push change over until I get to try them in snow lol! Great review!
Thanks for all your work bringing us these awesome tire tests!
Glad you like them!
This is the review I have been waiting for so long! 👍
Hope you like it!
This man so calmly drifting perfectly through the snow course like nothing(and speaking with gesticulations)...
Snow and good tyres makes it easy :)
@@tyrereviews Well...I think excellent driving skills have to play a major part! Most people I know couldn't do this with the best tires in the world! ;)
I just put Continentals on my SL550 and it's a much quieter road holding tire. The sidewall is stiff enough to hold the turns and soft enough to allow for a smooth ride. I took the car up to about 160mph and again it was smooth without the shuddering that my old tires had. Highly recommend.
My 2006 Cayman S has DWS 06+ and they are excellent tires, no complaints here!
Love your reviews! Keep 'em coming.
Love how you just casually drift around track and narrate this video without skipping a beat is absolutely badass!
Appreciate it!
I wish this type of tyres was available in Europe, here in Italy they'd be perfect!
I'm amazed by the amount of tests you've been able to do this year!
Me too and me too :)
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Always a pleasure to see these videos pop up. Much better wet course too with the cones.
If I don't sell this car for a truck, I'll grab the Michelin tires to run in the 2nd half of winter.
I've been running the Conti since later winter, and put maybe 30k miles on them so far. My tire setup is staggered and the rear tires are still holding up very well. I do drive spirited most days. I don't do hard acceleration or hard braking, rather progressive with both and I sorta break like a chauffeur.
My cornering technique is similar to Rob Wilson the F1 instructor to conserve tire wear but also going faster around turns/curves.
I generally run the high psi setting on my W212. 35-36F, 37-41R Cold Tire pressure. Warm tires pressure ends up being 38-39F, 40-43R depending on temp's, speed, time of day, etc.
I had 2 punctures to the rear passenger tire. 1 nail and 1 razor blade 🤦🏾♂️ on different occasions. Both patched and no issues up to triple digits.
Rain speeds on the Conti is excellent up to around 20k-25k miles, then it drops off to normal All Season speeds. Where I could go 80-90 in heavy rain new, I'm only pushing 65-70. No I don't drive super fast in the rain, just did some test to it's limit.
Hydroplane resistance is really good on a RWD car that's also staggered which should perform worse in the wet than a square setup on FWD or AWD. These tires are excellent and the best All Season tires I've ever owned. Much better than the prior DWS06 where those were shot at around 15k-20k in the rear. These ones have added at least another 15k-20k miles of durability to the rear tires and I have yet to need an alignment. I predict the front will go beyond 50k miles easy and the rear will need replacing around 45k-50k which is typically 25k-30k.
245 front
265 rear
Glad you're getting on with them :)
Thank you for doing these tests!
Thank you!
Super helpful, thanks for posting this!
Awesome video! You have become my go to expert for deciding which tires to buy. In the past I have relied on the testing done by a
certain well known retailer but have become a bit suspicious of their results after buying the tires they recommend. I have started to wonder if they have certain tires they want to sell. No idea if this is factual, just speculating. For example, comparing the same tires you did in this test, they gave the Continental the edge in comfort over the Michelin AS4 which is the opposite of your experience. Anyway, It appears to me that your tests are very well done, real life unbiased tests which I really appreciate! Thanks!
Thanks for the insight. Please keep doing these. I know dedicated winter tires are the best choice, but the RE980AS+ is now on my shortlist for my next set of all-season tires. After losing control and sliding into oncoming traffic in moderate snowfall, I am more interested in the winter performance.
I bought a set of Bridgestone Blizzak last year after watching your videos and today I ordered the DWS 06+ (it was a lot cheaper than Michelin). Thank you for putting so much effort in making these in depth videos. You make purchase decision very easy. Keep up the good work!
what made you go with those dws06 over the continental controlled contact sport srs + ?
how do you like them ? do you have a lot of experience with tires ? i’m looking for a good one on my awd q50
Great video as always!
Continental Dws06 plus . Solid tires 👌
I've put 22k miles on them
Great review. Love the drone snow drifting video.
Glad you enjoyed it
JUST THE REVIEW I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!
Hope you enjoyed it!
Would be grateful to hear commentary about the anticipated behaviors on an AWD vehicle, hear which of the characteristics are most impactive to AWD (or remain the same), and hear an estimate of how different the numbers would be if they were evaluated based on AWD vs the RWD drift behavior observed in the tests.
In theory it should be quite similar, but with every vehicle (AWD or not) having different geos, there could definitely be some slight balance changes.
I have the continental extreme DWS06+ on my 15 STI. In both wet and dry conditions, I swear by them. Amazing grip and resistance to hydroplaning. I feel very safe and confident driving year round in all weather conditions. I use these tires on all my cars and are the most all around bang for you buck. Best all season tire performance especially with AWD.
Fantastic video. I have the Pirellis and just put the contis on my parents new ride. I've heard from reviews that the dws06 were a little on the "soft side" so I went with the Pirellis at the time. Good to know it's still a "decent" tire even tho it's a dated design. A great realistic vid in my rainy world
Glad you're getting on with them :)
Nice. Just bought the Contis. Putting them in tomorrow.
I’ve got the DWS 06+ on my E36 M3, and I find them to be unbelievably good in the dry for an all-season. No sense of squirminess or tread block rollover, even after running summer tires on the car for years and years. In fact, they seem to have more lateral grip than some of the summer tires I’ve used.
Overall, they’re just amazing tires. Can’t see myself going back to using dedicated summer tires unless they’re fitted to a set of track day wheels.
Amazing car!
I have these tires on my Ford Flex . I need tires for my Chrysler Town and Country but they don’t make in that size for the Chrysler. Thinking about going with the new Bridgestone Weatherpeak for it.
Agreed, I run these most of the year, then I run Falken RT660's during summer.
I had the continentals on my civic si and they were amazing. But I just got the Bridgestones, I will see how they handle as a daily because the continentals were amazing.
@@guitarrise4523I'm stuck between the Bridgestone and continental. How did you like it the Bridgestone compared to the continental.
Love the reviews, would really like to see noise measurement data collected while driving on dry pavement
Danke für das Testen.
Man, I wish I could drive like you plus awesome reviews.
Snow makes drivers look good
I'm hopeful for the Pilot Sport AS4 on my AWD Mazda CX-5 this winter (in Iowa). I ran ExtremeContact DWS on my FWD Mazd6 wagon as my summer tires from their original launch. They were ok in occasional light snow but I'd switch to my Blizzaks anything >2". I then ran DWS on my 4matic C300 and was always happy, but never faced heavy snow due to COVID lock-down and working remote. The CX-5 is now my only vehicle. I do have some freedom to work from home, but I can't hide due to snow. Hopefully the Pilot Sport AS4 were a good choice. If not I'll pick-up some Blizzaks on extra rims. LOVE your page/reviews.
Had michelins and bridgestones, just got me a set of DWS06+ and they are my new go to tire.
Great reviews thank you
Currently rocking the DWS06+ on my Mk7.5 GTI and I love it!
I'm shopping for a 7.5 at the moment!
a very well-done review! I installed 235/45ZR-17 DWS06+s on my W210 Benz this summer, and the amount of grip they have (dry and wet) is frankly ridiculous for an all-season tire - just unbelievable. in fact, these tires are so sticky that for the first 50 or 60 miles, it sounded like the car was driving along on 4 giant lint rollers! steering feel, ride compliance, and resistance to hydroplaning are also excellent. after several thousand miles I'm pleased to report that while the sticky-linoleum sound effects have gone away, both the leech-like grip on the asphalt and my undying affection for the DWS06+ remain. it's an outstanding choice if you need all-season performance.
How is the road noise and comfort?
@@theaerolife ride is decent for 45-series rubber, but they can be a little noisy on some surfaces. still well worth it
excellent review & comparison
Awesome review. Thank you very much.
Got the Bridgestone potenza 980 AS Plus on my 2011 Lexus GS 350 silver black tent rwd wheel drive chrome wheels 245-40-18 they're killer tires quiet smooth a ton of grip not broken in yet 500 miles very happy Tom atl
Perfect timing mate! I’m about to order a Set and had 3 out of the 4 tires you reviewed on my list!
Cheers
What did you decide?
@@tyrereviews the conti’s seem to be match @$1300 installed for 255 35 18’s
Love this channel, thanks again
Thanks for watching!
Threw some RE980AS+ on my Giulia and love them! I live in CA and don’t track her since she’s my DD, but I need the “All Season” portion to work well since I like taking road trips with my family in different climates and temps
I mainly went with it though because i couldn’t find anywhere that had Michelin PSAS4s available to order or in stock
I've been driving on the Continental DWS series since it was first introduced the newest incarnation DWS 06+ I love it, it's quiet, smooth and wears like steel not to mention the grip and no hydroplaning in a downpour. I also feel confident in the snow' it's the best non-snow tire I've ever driven on. Sadly, my newest car (VW Alltrack) requires a load rating of 95 and the DWS 225/45/18 only comes in 91 load index rated tire. I bought the Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus which has a 95 rating and it's better than the continental performance wise but not as good in the All Season aspect I'm happy with it but wish I had the Continentals BTW tire wear on both is very very good.
For me snow grip is the by far the most important. I know I could use studded tires as many used to do in in my area in the 1970s and 1980s but with the snow season being shorter these days it does not make as much sense to have the extra set of tires for the winter.
All righty, I live in a mostly warm climate with frequent thunderstorms. In the winter, we might get five to seven days of snow and when we do, all hell breaks loose. The car is a Volvo XC70 so more All Season and less UHP tire. I originally ordered the Pirelli but I had nagging doubts. At the appointment I changed my mind, paid the up charge and now going with the Bridgestones. We'll see what's what, thanks for the video.
Dude... How did I not know about this channel?! 🔥
I absolutely love your videos. Super detailed, well produced, accurate.
Keep it up - I literally buy based on your testing
Curious - which is the loudest and quietest of the 4? You mentioned comfort but not noise specifically.
Another question - do you happen to have rolling resistance data for any of them? The Michelin and Continental are fitted on a lot of EVs lately where rolling resistance matters
Excellent review
Had a set of the Michelins for about a year and 6k miles. Best tire I've ever driven in the rain.
I actually have been using uhp all seasons for winter only for 15+ years on my sports cars. 2 Camaros, e46 m3, Ctsv, 2 mustangs and now my 16 M4. Current dws 06 are worn down and looking to replace.. might consider the Bridgestone but leaning towards the conti again. Have read they are 3-6lbs lighter than the dws06.. which for my dad with lightweight wheels and ccbs will make for a nice ride. Reason I use all seasons is because here in Toronto we get maybe 1-3 drives all season in actual deeper snow . It’s usually salted and plowed and dry 95% of the winter and I hate the heavy and numb feeling of winters like the blizzak lm25/60 etc. plus come summertime when I pull off the HREs to deep clean I can put on the winters and actually enjoy the car and not worry about wear.
Great review 👌👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks for the video!
If it helps with anyone's decision on which tire to get, I have the Michelins on a camaro and they are phenomenal but they do make a huge amount of road noise.
I run DWS06+ on my 2015 M5 comp. It handles 600whp so well and I've gotten great life and enjoyed the handling. They also handle light snow very well. Great tires.
interesting, how do they fare from a dig? considering all seasons for my vette
I have boost by gear so full power doesn't hit until 3rd gear. Even with power remove they still spin a little until 3rd gear and warp speed hits.
You are the best! If you quit... there is no one else. Thank you!
Thank you for this review. I am heading to the track this weekend and local temps took a huge plunge with 4 hours of my weekend commute under 10*F. I just didn't trust my Michelin summer tires to keep me out of a ditch or perhaps even completely delam out in the cold so I took my spare wheels in and mounted the Conti DWS 06+. These should get me to and from the track just fine and with track temps looking like 32F-58F they should still be fun without being completely destroyed through overheating. No track records this weekend just a lot of fun on a completely new course.
We shall see how it goes!
I feel like I'm becoming a tyre nerd since swapping from pilotsport 4s to Sport contact 7 and really appreciating the difference
the website is great too
You mean your Continentals better than Michelins you had ?
Nice swap!
@@cenktoplar8378 yes they are noticeably better
@@theofficialstig Michelin is just a brand to me. I know how Hankooks , Bridgestones , Yokohamas , Continentals etcs are far better. Once I orderes 4 pieces Crossclimates for my aunt. It was a M package BMW so rear tires were wider and I went to that size and I could not find Crossclimates for that size. Crossclimates were 6.5mm tread depth while Continentals were 8mm.
@@theofficialstig What tyresize are you on?
Not surprised by the Conti's performance, as the original DWS06 was fantastic on my 500hp Audi Q7. Absolutely amazing tire which only once gave me a moment of terror, but that involved a sudden torrential downpour and a bad Texas road in the wee hours of the morning. Let's just say I'm eternally grateful for an oddly placed exit lane...
bro you’ve got the best job i swear
I love your Chanel bro great reviews ❤
Thanks!
I have the DWS 06 + on my Audi 1995 S6 and its been an amazing tire. Wear is actually really good considering how heavy my audi is.
Excellent as always. Any chance of doing a comparison between All season and Winter on cold dry pavement? Many of us have long cold winters with a smattering of snow and ice but the majority is on cold dry pavement. Thank you.
Love your tests. I may be an odd bird but I put a huge emphasis on your straight aquaplaning testing. Or as we say in the states hydroplaning testing. Thanks for your data.
Ordered the Continental DWS 06+ last week for my '17 Jaguar XF 2L Diesel. Glad to know I made a good choice, although it wasn't done blind. I will let you know how they work out- getting them put on in a day or two. Cheers and thanks for the comprehensive reviews!
So how did they work out lol
@@oscarm.4078 No complaints, quiet on highway, good ride. I would purchase again.
I am on the 4th set of Conti DWS06 in Northeast USA. Best all season tire period! My other vehicles have them also.
I bought a set of DWS06+ for my high horsepowered Fusion Sport AWD this spring. Love them and hope to see if they actually work as well as you say in the occasional snowfalls that we get get here in lower Michigan. Regardless, as they are already in my garage from previous seasons, I still will be swapping them out for the winters X-Ice Xi3 on 18" rims in December. I do drive up to snow country in Northern Michigan multiple times in the winter.
Sounds like you have a nice combination of tires there :D
Just bought the DWS06+ last week (third set of DWS06 tires) for my Cadillac. Lower Michigan as well, couldn’t justify winter tires as I don’t feel it snows enough where I’m at and have always been happy with the DWS06 in the winter.
How did they end up doing for you in some snow?
Recently had a track day with the Pirelli P Zero all Season Plus tires on my Boss302. Grip was marginal at best, especially after running a few laps. Definitely will be looking for an Ultra High Performance summer/track tire for my next track day.
Tyre reviews supporter here 👀👋👋
Love the reviews. Would be interesting to add one reference tire to each category to set a benchmark. Extreme winter in snow, ultra high performance in dry, etc. Like understanding how close "do it all tires" are to the best
I have a video covering this coming out in the next few weeks :)
@@tyrereviews very much looking forward to this!
@@tyrereviews can't wait to see the comparisons since it's tough to gauge the differences when you jump tire categories (and videos!). Like, how good is a UHP A/S tire vs All-Weather vs grand touring A/S in the dry, rain, and snow? Is it all marketing or is it objective?
@@anthonyc8499 If you know about tires, you won't be overly surprised with the results, but it's nice to see it all in one place :)
@@tyrereviews I never knew tires could be so interesting or varied until I came across your content. Knowing what I now know after watching your vids, I am kicking myself for the last set of tires I bought. You’re making a difference my friend. Keep it up.
It would be awesome if you also tested brands like Toyo Tires or Yokohama so that we have a bigger selection of tires to compare to when choosing which tires we buy
I’d say if you take into consideration the price, the Continental is the best. Love my DWS 06’s in the summer and winter
Looks like you were at LPG for part of this. Good review.
Terrific review, thanks heaps. Thats just what I was looking for with my XF20d Jaguar Prestige MT17 which has 255/35/20. Cheers. I was also after the quietest tyre, and I suspect it might be the Michelin.
This is the perfect video for me at the moment as I'm looking to replace the tires on my car by the end of the year. I was torn between these exact models of Michelin and Bridgestone and it's nice to see a direct comparison between both. As far as I can tell, they're both very good tires. The price difference between both full sets is about $100 so I might save a bit and go for Bridgestone.
I purchased the Continental DWS-06 Plus thanks to your previous test & review. I am quite satisfied with them. It is good to see that they remain at the top of the ranking. I just could not justify paying more for the Michelin (which I am a fan of and tend to favor) when the Continental is nipping at their heels. So far I am happy and satisfied with them!
Glad you like them!
Likewise. I "settled" for The DWS-06 + because the Michelins were out of stock. Loving them so far and I may never go back to Michelin.
Dude, dont be so silly... That test is very subjective, as a result of new tyres test.. But if you test them on depth as time pass, like after one year im really sure, michelin mentain on top as 1st. No offence, but everything is science based
@@jnm-eh6qt Funny I'm going to have to get Michelins because DSW06+ are out of stock.
Contis will smooth out ride on an e63s like no other. If you are looking for pure comfort on Highway Tried them all
I’m glad and thankful and grateful that I got a used set of 4 Bridgestone Potenzas for $100 a tire ($400 total) when my tires needed replacing. Tread was still good but man those tires were loud and had noticeable road noise compared to my Goodyear Eagle F1 All Seasons. Even some cheaper tires I had (Ironman imove gen 2 AS and Achilles Desert Hawk) were quiter than my Bridgestone Potenzas. The Bridgestone Potenzas I still like; good tread but very noticeable road noise.
The Continental DWS06+ is the most impressive tire I have ever driven on. Absolutely transformed my car in every condition.
how do they do in the snow? considering getting them over the Michelin because they are significantly cheaper where I live, but if its a big compromise I'm not sure if it's worth the savings
@rukki8497 I haven't seen heavy snow with them, the reviews seem good though. I will say this though, it is the single most confidence inspiring tire I've driven in the rain. I used to hate driving in heavy rain and now it's no concern at all, the car stops and turns like it's dry.
@@FurkanCemTurfanda thats good to know. getting the contis installed friday and in Utah where I'm at snow isn't a huge issue mainly cold and a lot of wet so good to hear they do amazing in the rain. Excited to get off the tires that came on my GTI, just some cheap all seasons that feel awful
@@FurkanCemTurfandaI just drove 20 miles and back to Les Schwab in torrential Washington state rain to get DWS06+ fitted to my BMW 328i and the journey home was radically different to the journey there! Absolutely no loss of grip in standing water, I’m quite impressed.
good thing about Bridgestone potenza I've been riding for 20 years they always stay in balance I never have any flat tires and no weird vibration or flat tires or need road hazard insurance as long as you rotate and balance every 5,000 mi you're good to go and check your air pressure picture drops on cold tires Bridgestone potenza got it going on 980 AS Plus number 1 on tire rack right now!!!
Subscribed! 👍👍😀
Damn you made that snow course look so east what a legend
Thanks for all your hard work.
This channel has helped me a lot to choose the right tyres for my cars.
In your opinion, which all season tyre is the safest to drive,when it comes to crossing the European Union during the winter season? This is for a rear wheel drive car.
Many thanks in advance.
🙂👍🏻
Just ordered the Michelins through Costco at an amazing deal with the Costco pricing AND $150 off a set of 4. Looking forward to them on my 2021 BMW M340i Xdrive! 😊
Great comparison
Would love to see a comparison with Michelin cross climate 2 vs others
I've had the Contis for a year and a half now on my ST. They work exceptionally well with the Quaife LSD in the wet and on dry roads. But its getting cold and the Dunlop winter tires go on this next week until April.
wow this video is exactly what i was hoping for! was looking to buy the 06+ to put on my RX7 but haven't seen a lot of comparisons with them yet. my choice has been reassured as the snow performance isnt relevant to me, and from your description of the subtle differences in the wet and dry i'd rather have the continental
Glad I could help! (and sweet car)
how do they do in high speed cornering ?
Your reviews are great, I always enjoy watching..
I feel that price should be mentioned in this review as the conti’s are generally much cheaper than michelins in the same size. This can give conti an edge for a lot of buyers given how close they perform to the Michelins.
I find it difficult to mention price without including a wear test, as a cheaper tyre is only better value if it wears as well as the more expensive one
@@tyrereviews in the most case did the Michelin last longuer than the Continental...
Great review. The only thing missing was a comparison of road noise in the car, with the different tires. Also a comparison of noise at different tire life stages, although that might not be practical. I have read comments about tires that were quiet till about half life and then became noisy. With less insulation because of emphasis on reducing weight and improving fuel efficiency, tire noise is becoming more of an issue.
Awesome vid!
Which do you think would have the best road noise when going over crappy broken up pavement? Tired of all the road noise with my summer tires with my crappy local highways so considering a UHPAS
great summary
Congratulations you have been selected among our shortlisted winners 🎁💐
Telegram the above username so we can sort this out…
I don't deal with snow but just installed a set of Bridgestones on my Lexus LS430. I think it's the perfect tire for that car, very comfortable and quiet compared to the previous two sets of Michelins I had prior.
Only downside is more noticable rolling resistance for sure.
I am currently looking to replace my ls430 tires .
How are those working out for you ?
I previously had Michelin and currently Pirelli .
I am looking for quietest Tire available
I had pirellis on a triumph spitfire, and I would do it again…they had good traction, held air with nail punctures and were just great tires for wear also…
Gotta love this channel! Can you maybe do a test of the new conti ultra contact? I saw it oopping up this summer in mij tyre size (netherlands)
I'll try next year, think of it as a conti tyre with good mileage and good rolling resistance but a little less wet grip than the likes of PC7
Nice Video 👍
Great review.
1. Weight. The conti is several pounds lighter...weight on a performance car matters...a lot.
2. Noise: The Michelins get awfully loud in about 5k miles....the Conti's don't. That matters at least to me a lot....
Great review. Keep them coming!
