Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 PLUS vs Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 — Compared

“I went with Superspeed RF05RR 19x9.5 ET33 5x114.3 CB73.1. I liked the RF05RR better than the RF06RR many others have gotten. For tires I got 275/45ZR-19 CONTINENTAL EXTREMECONTACT DWS 06 PLUS XL. Yes tire selection is limited, but these had good ratings and I am happy. My reason for going to the 19s was increased sidewall. The ride is so much smoother than the OEM 21s. Much quieter than OEM as well. No plans on track days or anything like that, just daily driving, so grip was not a concern. Yes, the clearance is tight, but they fit. Balance weights have to go on the inside, but not an issue. Have not regretted going to 19s.”

“Yep the set on mine are approaching 5 yrs/50K miles since being put on and tread depth is averaging 4/32". Will be replacing them in the next few months and no doubt will go back with the same exact thing. Definitely the best performing/most even wearing tire I've had on any vehicle for decades regardless of brand.”

“Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06 Plus on standard wheel Q4 Prestige Has anybody done something as dumb as I have here? Can you guys share which tires you guys have on your Q4’s? I’ve had the Bridestone Alenza EV tires since I got the car 10 months ago, and I hated the sidewall look, lackluster handling, and their terrible grip in the snow. So I decided to bite the bullet, and get the set of tires I’ve been dying to have on this car since day one. I gotta say, I got the ugliest wheels offered on the q4, but man do the extreme contacts make this car look just a bit more sporty, the tread is aggressive and I don’t hear any increase in tire noise in the cabin which is always fantastic. I drive this car pretty hard and the Bridestone Alenza’s couldn’t hold up to my driving habits. The only downside I’ve encountered was feeling a bit more resistance from the car while cruising since EV tires have low rolling resistance in mind, and I know I will get less range from the tires. But cmon it’s hard not to absolutely love these tires on such a boring looking mom car.”

“I've had the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 (235/45/18). They were really sturdy, comfort was super bad with them and I sold them for half the price. These are sport tyres, you do not need them.”

“Potential issue with Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6? I recently installed a full set of Goodyear eagle F1 A6’s to my Golf GTI, since then I’ve noticed a really bad vibration through my seat at speeds around 70mph, at first I thought it was balancing so took the car back to the workshop and had them checked, the guy said they were fine, drove it again and same issue, I then took it to another place to double check, the guy said they were .5g out, no buckles, but still the issue is present, I’m starting to get a bit pissed off with the tyres at this point, my only option now is to submit a warranty claim, but first I have to buy a new set and I only get my money back if the original tyres are defective, does anyone have any experience with these tyres? Maybe it’s just that they’re super firm tyres but they’re so uncomfortable. Read more”

“Ah, now I remember -- available in the Taycan staggered 21" but not 20". (Some of these staggered setups seem like a conspiracy to induce madness via tire model available! Our i4 is the same way...)”
