I run continental Dws06+ year round and have yet to have any issues in the wet or snow. I also push the car quite hard in the summer time and they grip pretty well.
1. Continental Control Contact Sport SRS+
2. Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06+
These were the two options I considered and ended up getting the first one at Discount Tire. It was the cheapest option. I just got em last month.
I’ve put about 15,000 miles on a set of these. They’ve been great. Grip is great for winter tires and did well in some snow. The tread still looks great after 15k miles too, so should last you a long time.
I just got all 4 replaced to UC6.
Continental ExtremeContact DWS06+ if you a real hustler and got that pape right
I like BF Goodrich T/A KSI they are less expensive than Michelin XIce. They have good performance and seem fairly durable
So, just drove them through the snow. I previously had cross climate 2 on the car and I liked them because they made the car feel unstoppable in snow and rain. But with that came an awful noisy and hard ride. The continentals do everything the Michelin does but BETTER at the trade off of snow traction… About 2 inches of snow this morning and I’ll say this. They get the job done.
very happy with my "continental extreme contact sport" 205/50/r15
I’ve always ran the Conti DWS06 all seasons, probably 8 different sets of them on numerous types of vehicles. I love the tires when they are new (dry, wet and snow) until about 1/3 thread… then they become noisy imo.
Oh heck no to the Conti's unless you like a super soft sidewall that likes to bubble when it passes by a pothole let alone hits one. I don't get the fascination with them other than the price. I ran them on my old GLI and they were neither good in the rain/cold nor really all the special in the dry.
