I have DWS06+ on my IS500, Pirelli P Zero AS 3+ on a GR Corolla, and Pilot Sport AS4 on a LC500.... I like the Continentals best. All three are great but I the the GRC has an automatic advantage since its AWD. You made a quality pick, Chris How's your another vehicle with the light issue?
So far, we haven't run into any other issues with the Kona, but we're still keeping a close eye on it. Other than that it's been great, though. Thanks for asking. And yes, I've been very happy with the Michelins. I think if I had the stable of cars that you have, I'd try out a few more tire alternatives so I could compare them back to back. 😛 Enjoy! You have some sweet vehicles! 💪🏾
What pressure are you running? I just got 275/30/20 Conti DWS04+ all seasons and I dropped them down to 38 front 38 rear to increase ride quality. The door sticker doesn’t have recommended pressure for these tire sizes but the rs5 recommended pressure for this size is 38/41F, 32/36 rear. No clue what is best but 42 all around was a trash ride for me.
@@Rygamordis Right now I'm running 45 front / 44 rear. My ride is noticeably softer than with the OEM ContiSports so I've kept them like that. I assume Continental just runs a firmer sidewall than Michelin which might contribute to a firmer ride.
@@AutoAcademics i actually posted on Reddit about this and a few guys say for a softer ride run 38F 36R. The 40+ psi is max load rated so if you’re riding around with a bunch of people keep the higher psi but if you cruise alone or with one passenger mostly like me then 38/36 is fine. Try and lmk what you think. I did it today and my ride is so much more comfortable.
@@Rygamordis Yeah, I think as long as you stay within a general range you should be fine. Alot of times, tire pressures help to keep heat in check. Lower pressures equates to softer tires, but also higher friction/degradation which also raises temps. A few psi lower shouldn't be an issue, tho. And they may soften up more once the weather warms up. Good luck and thanks for watching!
@@lelwil2 Yeah, that's something I'll keep an eye on to see how much difference there is. Thanks for the heads up, tho. Oh, and thanks for watching, too!

@@AutoAcademicsthat’s good to know appreciate the info on that! Gonna sub and follow your channel!
@Rygamordis I appreciate your support!
Your speedo will read slower than you are actually going. No idea if it will be significant or not.
