  • Tire Question...need help before lunch

    I'm going at lunch to buy a new tire. Its between a dunlop d208 and a continental conti road attack. the continental is a new model and i'm wondering if anybody has heard anything about them. i heard they are up and coming and that tire is supposed to be sweeeeet. let me know! thanks.
    if its got 2 wheels or a skirt....i'll ride it.

    The Conti is a decent tire and should save a few bucks. If the cost is comparable though, I would get the Dunlop.

        I have the conti force tires and love them. So I would assume that the road attacks, being their top notch tire, would be even better. I dont personally know anyone who has had them, BUT I have heard they are great all around. Cheaper too!!!!


        So based on MY experience with the contiforce tires, I wouldnt hesitate getting the road attacks. Hope this helps!

          I read something from Beek a while back about the Conti Road Attack tire that made me not want to get it. Guy had lots of problems with them.

          After reading the article, and seeing the pics he had posted, I decided against them.

              Are you replacing the front or the rear...it sounds liked the rear...you should match to what ever you have on the front. They need to match...at least that is what I have been told in the past...
