??? thoughts?? go in the rain? do they spin alot if you gun it from a stop?

 

Buddy of mine is about to get a set on his Roush Stage 3...will let you know in a couple weeks, if you can wait.

 

no problem

 

here is some information from tirerack..you can click on the reviews and test tabs for some other opinions.

I have the Continental Extreme Contact DWS model (similar to the DW, but also has a light snow rating). Absolutely love them; way better than the stock tires. Wet grip is much improved, dry grip is awesome. Haven't had any light snow to test that yet. I went with 255/45/18's at all four corners....

 

I've only heard good things about the Conti DW, not the last word in ultimate dry grip, but a good all-around summer street tire with decent grip in the dry and wet. They are on the short list of tires I'm considering for the 18" Bullitt wheels I have sitting in my garage (in the 255/45-18 size).

 

They are on my short list for next season too.
My plan is to put larger tires on the GT (255/45-18).
I will put the 235s on a 2nd set of 18" Bullitt (64W) wheels I have sitting in my garage.
That set will go on the V6 car.
That will leave me with an extra full set of 17" (64D) wheels & tires with low miles on them.

 

I believe Dan is running them (montreal_stang) on his RTR wheels...

 

I've got the DWS on my Cobra and love them. I had them in the snow once (had to ) and it did fine. They grip quite well unless you're really trying to break them free.

 

I have the DW on my 11 GT (the DWS are the all season version and though good not in the same league as the DW for ultimate performance).

The DW is on the same level as the PS2's (may not be better than the PS2's but certainly not measurably worse either, if the PS2's were a 10 for street performance the DW is a 9.5) they are very good in my experience with them so far.
PS I was going to put them on my BMW 335i when the tires first came out but they were back ordered. Then I sold my 335i. Recommended them for a friend with his Lexus GS430 and he likes them a bunch too.
My buddy is a manager at a Discount Tire Store and he said he hasn't heard of really ANY complaints with them and he's put them on all kinds of performance cars including some exotics.

To me best bang for the buck tire wise, hands down.

 

I'm also running the DWS tires...295/40R20 out back on 20 x 10 Magnum 500's, and 245/40R20 on 20 x 8-1/2 up front. They are excellent tires. They were one of the few tires available in the size I wanted (about 1-2/3" taller than stock out back to fill the rear wheel wells without having to lower the car) and have an excellent thread wear rating. Grip has been excellent in the rain, and they ride as smoothly as stock (impressive given the change from 18" to 20" wheels).

 

far with them? pro/cons?..do they hook up pretty good if you floor it? what about driving in the rain?

 

I have had them on numerous other cars I have owned and love them. Grip well in all weathers incl. light snow. They are quiet, and wear well even when I push them hard. Will almost certainly put them on when the factory tires need to change. Personally I don't think you can go wrong with them.

 

Yeah (Montreal ponies ) has indeed Conti DW extreme tires wrapped around his RTR wheels. Love 'em, they grip very well and have no complaint to make. The only thing is i haven't driven the car in the rain so far, so no way of knowing how they perform in wet conditions.
I just got my Conti sport3 tires to go with my SVT PP wheels. Should have them on next week.
