Continental SportContact DWS?

lindros2 · 01-30-2011, 12:19 PM

Anyone try these tires? Clearly they're not runflats, but at this point, who cares (see: roadside).

I read about them in Road & Track (comparison between Mitsubishi Evo and Subaru WRX STI), and they're pretty cheap:

Front: 245/40ZR19
Serv. Desc: 94Y
UTQG: Treadwear: 540
Traction: A
Temperature: A

Price: $204.00/each.

Rears are $220.

They're awesome. I've had them on a few RWD cars with no mishaps in the snow. Worth every penny IMO.

Can't say how they are on a F10, but on my G35 they made the traction control go crazy. Curves I'd go around before with no issues would cause the traction control to intervene. I have two in my garage collecting dust now (the front two were on backorder so I just had the rears on).
