6-month-old Conti DWS taken out by evil pothole

Post by matthew1 »

Sidewall pinched and punctured. Pics to come.

My estimation of Contis is now "neutral", down from "recommend".
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Sorry to hear. If you don't go back with Conti, what brand are you looking at ? I ask because it is time to replace my Trac Max, ( cheap Made in China , flat repair shop brand). I'm looking at Bridgestone Potenza from Tirerack. I like the look and price.
