ExtremeContact DW
On Special Closeout on Tire Rack $125
. . That is like half the price of MPSS . . Any thoughts as to this tire on M235i vs MPSS or even MPS4S?? . . |

Although I can't comment on them with the 2, I did have the DW's on my IS300. I loved them. Very grippy and a very quiet tire. Also their wet traction&handling is one of the best in class. Continental typically has softer sidewalls but I never found it to be a big issue with the DW's. Maybe just a tad more body roll than I wanted. Wear life is also very good. I'm in need of new tires soon and the DW's are the only tire I'm considering other than PSS's. For the price you can not beat it. That offer is extremely tempting.
I'm also curious for a comparison between the PSS's and DW's. Obviously the DW's aren't 100% of the PSS's. But if they are around 85-90% I think for street driving that's definitely a tire worth considering. |

I have DWS06 on 17" BBS rims on my car. MPSS are still mounted on stock rims in the garage w less than 200 miles on them.
Love the Contis for the shitty roads around me they can't be beat.

I had them on my GTI. They definitely handled the canyons without issue, however, they were pretty noisy. Not sure if it was the tire or just the wheel setup I had.

I run them on my R53 - they're great in the wet and I've pushed them very hard on mountain roads in Tenn and NC - no problems at all.

I love Conti's, but have the factory summer RF right now, last car had contisports. Don't have much time w/ other brands to compare, but for me they handle on rails, and wore like iron for a performance tire. Been considering a switch to nonRF, and may check out those sale prices.
