Suggestion to replace Continental on Gen 8

The Continental tires that came stock on my 2016 are OK, but they're not very sticky. I live in the south, so I can use a summer/ 3-season tire year-round. I'm not looking for racing performance, but something a bit stickier.

Suggestions?

I'm in the same boat. Researching it now. What did you end up with, and are you pleased?

Well, I ended up having to replace all four tires unexpectedly and, unfortunately first one then the other three. So, I have Continental tires again. When this set wears out, though, I'll go back to the Yokohama 5xx I used on my other cars unless I get a recommendation for a better tire. The Yokohama 5xx certainly aren't racing tires, but they are reasonably sticky but still have good tread life and are pretty quiet.
