Customer Reviews
Excellent tire. Quiet, confidence inspiring in all conditions, and wearing as predicted by Continental. Best tire we've found, all things considered (including price!).
DWS06 is my favorite mildly sporty car tire. They're not track tires, and they're not snow tires, but they do a good job of splitting the difference IMO. I've put them on 3 cars so far and not regretted it. I don't get the rated mileage life out of them, but I'm not a slow driver and life is too short to drive around on rock-hard tires with sub-par traction.
