Conti Extrem contat DWS 06 + Been using them in several sets on many VW's great water and grip, long lasting with great traction tire rack, 2 year road hazard, cus our roads suck, I took out one in a giant crater on teh NJ Tpk (and ya PAY high tolls for a **** road) tire rack hazard covered it, new tire next day check a wek later, had VW dealer mount and balance $16...all better
Great in rain, very good in moderate snow on my Alltrack.
I swapped my Conti original equip. for these and will buy them again for sure. Quiet and good in moderate amount of snow. Check TireRack for reviews. Nothing will be as good as a dedicated snow tire and I'm sure you know that. Good luck.
I replaced the Bridgestone that came on my Golf SEL wagon 225/40R18 Vredestein's Quatrac Pro. The handling is equal to the Bridgestone's and the ride and nose level is greatly improved. I haven't used in the snow but they are better than the Bridgestones in the rain. Plus they cheaper than many of the other tires.
40k for me, bought the slightly bigger continental lx 25. Never looked back.
Just put the Continentals on my '19 GLI. Happy with them so far. they are top rated by Tire Rack customers. Replaced Michelin Pilot Sport which was very good on wet roads. Dumped the Hankooks not long after buying the car. Awful tires.
Been using Contis for many years now.They are excellent and not too pricey for most common sizes.Great all-arounders
+1 for CC2’s.
Great all around tire on my M3 LR AWD 19” w/Boost in every area except range.
Sure it’s not a racing tire, but compared to the OEM Conti’s the wet and snow grip is sooo much better. Dry grip is almost as good. Durable, comfortable, great wear.
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.\"
I have never been a fan of Conti tires, especially anything with "ContiSport" in its name. They come OE on many German marques, and I can't for the life of me figure out WHY other than some smoking back room deal hammered out over loads of pharmaceuticals in the wee hours of the morning. My MK6 felt like a cement truck with its OE Contis. They would flat spot in what seemed like 120 seconds, noisy as all get out and lasted 1/3 of the claimed milage. Ive permanently deformed Contis on my old 05 E55 by just hitting a small chuck hole or bump. This is anecdotal evidence at best, but my money is on the tires being deformed, belt shift or what ever the excuse of the day is.
