white1500 Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Slower lap times? And even though they're tested against the LTX MS it looks like they're more comparable to the latitude tours. So far these conti's look good but I'm skeptical to leave the Michelin man, he hasn't let me down yet! And I'm interested in the updated Defender version even if it's "just" a compound change.
Daryl LBZ Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I definitely wouldn't be afraid of the Continental tires. I put them on the Cruze, and they are a nice tire. They even cost less than a few other options I looked at with a lower mileage warranty.

All pricing is for 265/70/17.

white1500 Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I don't see any downsides to an all season, any weather any surface is a requirement for me. This winter has been the exception but we make at least one trip up north per year and the truck needs to handle ice and snow adequately.
