First post in these forums, I'm more active on the Vortex forums
I have OEM wheels and Bridgestone Potenza RE97AS (which are awful), but want to upgrade to Neuspeed RSE10 18x8.5 et45 (bronze) and I want to pair with 245/40/18 and drop on Eibach ProKit or VWR springs. This set up works without rubbing according to other forum posts... might even consider 255 and 18x9, who knows.
With my previous MKI Audi TT, I did have the ExtremeConctact DWS06 and they were amazing in the snow. My wife got these tires on her Elantra and they did great in the snow we got here recently which was about 6". All in all, the Contis have been the best tires we have ever had, just a tiny MPG penalty, but rock solid on highway and just everyday commuting, and great handling.
I've been looking at the BFGoodrich g-Force Comp 2 A/S which are very similar in performance to the Contis, but they have the different pattern. I'd be interested in these since the tread is a little wider at 245 (9" vs the Contis 8.2" wide tread) when compared side by side, I assume handling might be better than the Contis.
How do they do in dry, wet, snow, highway? All thoughts are appreciated!
