Has anybody tried the Continental PureContact LS in snow?

I had the truecontact on my Prius and they were phenomenal. I know it’s a different tire but I believe continental uses a lot of the same technology for both tires.
They weren’t quite as good a dedicated winter tires but really really good for all seasons especially when new.

Apparently being knowledgeable about tires is not a prerequisite for a tire installer.

Continental makes good tires.

Would you provide us with some additional information regarding your OEM tires?

Did you measure the tread depth prior to replacing them?

Were there any uneven wear patterns?

What tire pressure did you maintain?

Sorry for the late reply.

Unfortunately I don't self-service my vehicle so I can only go by what Honda tells me.

When I finger checked the Energy Saver's, the tread was pretty close to the wear indicator.

Never received information that there was uneven wear, and never noticed any issues with stability, wobble or any odd tire/road noise. I did have to patch my front drivers's side tire approximately two months ago (I'm guessing that's about 1.5k miles given how much I drive).

As far as maintenance goes, I just have been babying the car with Honda and following the maintenance minder schedule.

Hope this info is helpful!
