The DWS06s are great all-season tires but are a bit softer of rubber, if you live in the south where its routinely over 100 degrees (even hotter on the pavement) i'd pick something else as a summer tire. I ran them on my 2014 Mustang GT year round and had no issues getting anywhere in the snow.
P.S DWS stands for Dry Wet and Snow and can be determined based off which of those letters are still on how deep the tread is
Continental Terra hardpack keep putting smiles on my face
The factory continentals were, by far, the WORST snow/wet tires I have ever had on a vehicle in 30+ years of driving. Hoping the all-seasons I have now fare better.
I like the dws06s solid option
I’ve been running the Continentals for a number of years now and will not switch to anything else.
DWS every single time
I've had both on my m340i (currently on the pzeros). Contis lasted 15k miles and were down to 1 mm. Iirc the contis also felt a tad bit floatier. Awesome dry grip on both. DWS were great in snow, have yet to go through a winter with the pirellis. 0 complains for either when it comes to heavy rain.
Continental DWS06+ on my performance.
I have a set of wheels with Continental DWS 06+ on them. They do reasonably well even in snow.
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.
