Just installed 4 Continental DWS and notice the smoother ride already. Will report back after the first snow.

Took off almost bald Yoko's and the alignment was way out of specs.

Thanks for all the tips here

 

According to tireracck, you now have one of the best UHP A/S tires for the snow. Congrats!

FYI: I just got a crack in my sidewall after 3k miles on my DWS 17s. They DO include road hazard for 12 months, but still, seems a bit early for that to be happening... Maybe a pot hole?

 

High-res photo? Let us know if there were any hassles with the replacement.

 

I'm getting ready to buy the same thing for my OEM Type-S wheels as we brace for winter in the Chi.

 

i bought a set from tire rack yesterday and they arrived today!!! woot woot. had them put on today and they are way quieter than the potenza/turanza combo the car came with. i still need to do the 500 miles before i can judge

Just put them on my new ASPEC Ebony's.
Smooth and quiet!

 

Thats what I'm shooting for, smooth & quiet yet Z rated!

 

I'm looking at the DWS as well. I just wonder how long the tires can go before the "S" wears off and they aren't good in the snow anymore. The price is much better than the Michelin A/S plus.

The OE MXM4's are horrible, it's like driving an ice skate in the winter.

 

Anyone try their dedicated summer tires? I have a set of snow tires and was looking at the DW.
