Tires Continental or DUNLOP

Get some conti dws. Great tires.

NorCal Chassis Works in Fairfield is an excellent local shop that I have patronized in the past, and happens to be a TireRack recommended installer. I ordered 4 Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 in 225/40/18 and had them delivered to the shop.

Not AT, but as soon as I get another 10K on the stock tires, I'm switching to Continental DWS. Had them on my '14 Accord Sport stick, and they were fantastic in Snow, bet they're great with AWD.

I run Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires. 50k tire. No complaints.

I did have Continental ExtremeContact DSW06's on my ST and they were really good.

They felt so sketchy I went out and dropped 800 on continentals and I can barely make them break traction and can corner way harder. Feel more planted and safe.

My wife purchased a used Acura Integra. When I drove it just didn't handle as precise as I expected. We replaced them with.... Continental. All of a sudden the handling was much better and safer.

You could save some money and have better handling by choosing something that's not run flat. I use Continental Extreme Contact tires (\~$947 installed with no alignment at Les Schwab, and yes I could have gotten them cheaper elsewhere but LS gives out credit like it's free candy) and I love them so far...

I am back to the Bridgestone BATTLAX T31(t) after a year on Dunlop Sportmax Roadsmart III.

The Dunlop Sportmax was quite noisy, which I did not like.

Looking at the Dunlops, they are rated poorly in pretty much every review I saw. They only have a treadwear rating of 360 which is pretty low for an all season crossover tire which explains why they're cooked at 20k miles. Most reviews I see are people complaining about them wearing out at 20-30k miles and being terrible in wet/snow.
