Contenental ExtremeContact DWS06+ I did the stock 275/45/21

I've run several sets of these on multiple vehicles and love them. Quiet, good traction and were decent in the snow. I just passed 20K miles on them and wear has been even. I still have the visible "S" on the tread depth indicator (meaning still good for snow) which means there is at least 6/32' of tread still left. I think 10/32' is new, so almost to the halfway point on these tires

I run the same tire on my vehicles. I have not been disappointed.

Also great tires. Lets be honest, the Michelin Pilot Sport variances and the DWS06's are two of the best out there right now.

Totally agree. For A/S they’re pretty much the two best over anything. Price does reflect that though.

Yup. Funny enough when i was shopping for the DWS, the 295/40's were a little bit cheaper than the 275/45's.

Still a ~$400 tire before M&B however.

Tell me about it. I spent $5,600 on the Velgens and Michelins. It looks good though, and drives well too...

just in case anyone’s shopping around and has a Costco membership; mounting balancing and lifetime rotation and road hazard are included in the price. They also fill with nitrogen. Mine were under $2100 otd for the Michelins but I don’t know if they carry the DWSs

I've been running the Pirelli P-Zero 4s in a 315/35R22. They've been a great tire. Soft tire compound for better grip, but definitely shorter life. P-Zero 5s are on backorder. If they don't come back in stock in time, I'm considering trying the Continental SportContact 7s. I run Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2s in 275/50R20 in the winter.
