Had good years on my '10 Routan. Meh. Very loud and very hard. Eventually purchased a set of Continentals -- oh my what a difference it made. I would not put anything else on the Routan. They look great and perform flawlessly. Highly recommended.
I have the Continental ExtremeContactSport DW and have been pretty happy with them for the price.
The Conti’s seem to be the best bang for the buck (as were the departed DW).
I liked the continental race king as a fast rolling trail tire, and if you were ok with something a little heavier duty, maxxis high roller 2s are a good choice for the front.
Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06. Fantastic all-around tire.
Conti DWS 06. Fantastic tire, helluva bang for the buck. Grippy, communicative, great in rain or dry, quiet, rides great. Running those on both my Passat, and on the wife unit's Fusion.
I am running Continental Extreme Contact DWS06 in size 235/40ZR18 95Y X on 18" Omanyt (18"x7.5" ET51 5x112) R32 rims. My speedometer off by a few - I usually cruise at 74 MPH actual speed (GPS) while my speedo and cruise is set for 77 MPH.
My continentals are hands down the best tires I ever bought. They ride better than other tires with two to three times the side wall height. They also are the best handling tire I've ever driven on. Would highly recommend.
I've the ProContract Tx as stock, and they are quiet on everyday surfaces, both at city and highway speeds. Ride is compliant and soft, but not squishy. However once they are on concrete highways, the road noise ruins it all.
After a week with the DWS, I've decided to replace them with the OEM version of Pirelli all seasons. The DWS on my car aren't "loud", but the noise they do give off (high pitched whine) drives me nuts at highway speed.
