Same price, DWS06+ NO QUESTION. it’s the better tire. I’ve owned both. It’s much more expensive than the AS plus 3 where I live.
Contis all day . I love those dws.
The Conti’s for sure. I’ve had great luck with these tires.
Depends if you also drive on the highway, sparked tiers have a tendency to have a longer braking distance and bad grip on wet roads.
If you do drive the county roads that's not salted , Nokian Hakkapellita 10 is the go to.
If you do drive on salted highway alot then Continental tires is preferred as they do handle wet surface better and if you do have black ice (underkjølt regn) alot , a sparked tire will always be the best option.
Aren't the Continentals OEM? They came on my 2010 S5 and I've stuck with them for the past 120k miles, year round, with no issues.
If you don’t get roads covered in ice and compacted snow for large parts of the winter, I’d personally go for studless. They’re quieter than studded tires, and you don’t need to pay the «studded tire fee» when entering major cities. In a coastal climate the roads are mostly just wet asphalt anyway, so no need for studs. They don’t help in fresh snow either.
I use Continental VikingContact 7 (now replaced by VikingContact 8) in Bergen. I’ve never had any issues with them in deep snow or over mountain passes on my FWD hatchback. Super predictable when they lose traction as well. In those dimensions the price difference between good and cheap tires isn’t that big, so get something good. If you’re a NAF member you get a really good discount at Best Drive (continental).
I’m on my 4th or 5th set of dws06. Unless I need a specific performance summer tire I’ll keep running them
Continental ice contact 3s are the best winter tyres i have driven so far
My Conti's are also very good but do not inspire confidence at high speed turn rates when I cannot feel the breakaway point; makes me nervous, I want a smooth transition into a slide so I can control the location of my vehicle!
Then I bought continental. 2 years they lasted. And after first year i could feel they are trash.
