Recently replaced factory Goodyear with 20” Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 PLUS for about $1200. 3500 miles and they are great with minimal wear. Quiet with great wet and dry handling. 2021 MYLR.
I have the DWS 06 on my RS and I LOVE how they feel and drive.
Continental extremecontact dws06+
I had ExtremeContacts on my golf and loved them except they didn’t last as long as I expected. Then I got Pilot Sport 4s since they were on sale at the same price as the contis. they’re a bit louder but a bit grippier.
I had a friend with Blizzacks on his WRX, and I put the equivalent Continental WinterContacts on my WRX. Mine wore less over time and I commuted more, were slightly cheaper at the time, and felt like they performed a little better.
Big fan of the Continent Winter Contacts for my Passat in 215 width. They were quite a bit less than Michelin's at the time. I'll buy them again.
I recommend Continentals. High quality tires, in general high lifespans and good grip. Good ride quality and low noise.
Nexen WinGuards are some good, budget dedicated winter tires... they perform better than they should for the price...
I had this same model on my prior VAG vehicle (in 245/40R19) and pretty typical for OEM tires: smooth ride, reasonably quiet, handles ok (both dry & wet), and can cope with an early- or late-season light snow when you're caught unexpectedly w/o your winter or all-weather tires.
They were better OEM tires than the Continentals that came on a previous Mercedes Benz or several VWs. I have *nothing* good to say about Continentals; bad experience every time.
