which of these tires do you recommend???

I think that the continental are the best in this picture. Please feel free to comment on that.

I have heard good things about the continentals.

:iagree:

Poll it! Poll it!!

All seasons Tires on 370z? anyone have done that?
I'm thinking of the Continental too. How's the thread life?

Sorry for jacking 1 post in ur thread OP

for what application? snow? if so none of them. for snows LM60's FTW!

all season tires = no season.

Yeah the Continentals have the best reviews but I wouldn't get all seasons IMO.

What do recommend for summer tires Mr Kenchan?

so far im liking both the conti DW's and S04 polepositions. im going to try pilot supersports next. :)

I have the DWS on my nismo. Just had 4inches of snow last weekend and no problems going anywhere or with traction. Have about 10k miles on them and tire wear seems fine.

I went to the dealer for an oil change and they told me that my tires are low in tread. They are right. I bought this car used with almost 11k. Is this a normal wear for a Z or the previous owner was a douche?

conty's

In our climate, DWS. You are going to need a tire that can drive in light snow, and the DWS is the best of all of those in that regard.

Bill (VaGntlmn) in our club has the DWS. I think b1adesofcha0s has them as well.

Go with Hankook Ventus EVO... Best tread life I have experienced for a performance tire and they gripped really well.
I have had, Bridgestone, Toyo, Nitto, Nankang, Yokohama, Falken and Hankook from my experience Hankook was the best overall package.

The Toyo was the only other tire I really like T1S and a T1R for the model name but they wore out fairly quickly.

Just my 2 cents.

He's looking for an all-season tire that will work in light snow up here in the DC area. The Hankooks are a no go.

I'm in SoVA so lot less snow, but running on my DWS right now for temperature. They are fine, just careful on the paint stripes when leaving stop lights / signs if you don't like chirping.

Thank You bro +1 Rep I bought them today at tire rack. Theyll be her on the 7th.

nice^ enjoy!

:tiphat::tup:

Thanks bro. Im suposed to get them today according to UPS tracking info, which is kind of weird and exciting cause I order them yesterday. Cant wait to try them on.

They probably shipped from Tire Rack's Delaware warehouse.

Got them...:tup:
I got another question. Do you guys recommend for me to go to Nissan for installation?

I'm originially from Maine Bro I got the snow thing... If you read through the post a couple people ask about "summer" tires. I was letting them as well as OP know my thoughts on the tires I have had expericence with.

And trufully the 350 or 370z were never intended to drive in snow and I seriously don't think an all season tire will help you if you get stuck in 6+ inches of snow...

I missed the part where some asked about the summers. :tiphat:

Anyways, in our area the DWS should be fine for light snow. 6+ inches won't work because the car won't clear it. But in the Mid-Atlantic you should be fine on 2-3" of fresh snow or plowed and snow-packed roads.

With the proper tire, any car can drive in the snow. The 370Z is awesome in snow up to 4-5" deep with Blizzaks or other comparable snow tires. Winter is one of my favorite seasons for driving because I love getting the chance to romp around in the snow on my Dunlop WinterSport M3s. :icon17:

I understand the "all-season = no-season" thing kenchan mentioned (and I fully agree), but when someone insists on an all-season tire solution, depending on their climate the DWS is really the only one I recommend since it's the most capable all-season in snow on the market right now.

The DWS tread pattern makes me wanna puke.

Gotcha, I think we all had like 3 converstions going in this one thread... Haha

I put on the DWS and is kind of raining. I decided to give it a little test and so far super awesome. Good bye noise, goodbye every little rocks that my summer used to pick up. I cant wait till it snows a bit so I can give it a try. So far, Im happy with what I got. I dont know why people say All Season = No Season. These new DWS I got, sure as hell perform alot better that the OEM summer ones.

They perform better than the summer tires in these cold conditions (where summer tires are not intended to perform), but when things warm up and the roads are dry the summer tires are vastly superior in terms of grip and feel.
