Continental touring+ is legit too. Havent had 1 flat since I switched several years ago.
Highly recommend Conti Dws 06. While not as sticky on dry compared to the Dunlop’s I had zero issues last winter.
The Continental ECS (Extreme Contact Sport) are worlds ahead of them and do amazing in the rain.
I use the DWS06 currently, used on 17 CWP as well. I only notice the sidewall negatively when trying to take highway on-ramp curve at high speeds. But even then it’s not dramatically different than stock Dunlop’s. I actually enjoy them more during the rest of driving because of smoothness.
Been running Continental SureContact RX in Texas for a while now
Not the same amount of rain as FL but we definitely have the heat
I run the WinterContactSI on my M3 (and had them on my R), and they have been my all time favorite snow/winter tire.
I loved the Conti viking 7's on my rav4 so much, I sold the Xi3's on my Prius Prime and switched to Contis as well. 225/45/17 mounted on 17x7. They seem to wear about as well as the Michelins but they grip much better in all weather conditions, are quieter than the already very quiet Xi3, and the handling is firmer.
Continental extreme contact DWS are what I've had in my RS for three years for non summer seasonal driving. They are excellent.
Continental DWS06's have always had issues without being out of balance. This has been a criticism since they were introduced. That being said, they are probably the best all season tire for \"snow.\"
As for tires, I'd absolutely recommend against getting Conti DW's. I got them to replace Michelin PSS' mainly because they were cheaper and I thought the drop off in performance wouldn't be as significant as the price difference but it is...Very significant. For a chill family car, DW's are great..for any kind of performance driving, they just aren't good enough. Traction is ok but the sidewalls are very soft and I could feel them rolling and giving away at the track.
