Continental Extreme Contact DW- A+++++

Hey guys. I just installed Continental Extreme Contact 235/45/17 on the TL and got an alignment done. My buddy did this at his job, so everything was done like for him self.

Let me tell you, these tires grip amazing, literally noiseless. No vibrations ,nothing.

I def reccomend them.

These are for dry and wet weather correct? I live in Sunny/Wet FLA and will be needing tires by X-mass. I would like a nice quiet comfortable riding tire. How is the ride with these?

Good to hear!!

I had the tire shop bring some DW's from their warehouse, dropped my car off and an hour later the guy called and said.."You wanted the DWS's right? " No the DW the summer tire! bahhhhh they took 2 tires off and then called me..either way i'm glad he called and confirmed otherwise i would have dws's on my car instead of dw's!

So i guess i will have to wait 2 more days before i can get these on. Glad to hear you enjoy them thus far.

They're great tires. Only thing is the sidewall is soft which is not a bad thing. Also, the sidewall does not look ss good as michelin ,bridgestone etc...

Yeah just got them installed today, your right the sidewall is softer than my old tires but it rides great around town. So far i am really pleased with this tire, low highway noise, comfortable ride and nice grip. The tire itself really is kind of ugly.

But i'm all about the 550 price tag for Summer tires, sure they will last 5 year the way i drive.

Don't know if its the tires or new suspension but took a 25mph off ramp @ 50 today and got 0 feedback from the tires lol..wonder how fast i could of gone before hearing some slippage.
