Tires Continental or NANKANG

Agree with the Conti DWS. My son lives in Colorado and regularly heads to the mountains to ski. The DWS worked fine for him in his 2011 WRX.

I can recommend the tires that I use and have been happy with for a while now, the Continental DWS. It's the best all season tire I've used so far, and the one that has work best in the snow

you don't need studs, continental extreme contact dws are the best tires for chasing snow around colorado in an awd car.

I've been running 18" Conti Pure Contacts for about 8k miles now. Initially, I didn't love the tire but they handled good so I decided to keep them. Recently had them rebalanced and rotated which that made a difference. Ride is firmer than Michelin's or OEM Contis but this is one of the best handling tire I've owned on any of my cars. Hydroplaning resistance and snow traction for an all season tire is excellent.

I have had Conti DW performance summer tires on my TDI for over a year, now, and run them between 40 - 41 psi. For me, that is a good compromise between handling and comfort, and gives the added benefits of longer tire life and better fuel economy. Note, however, that the standard sport suspension on the US TDI, while about equal in handling to the GTI on real roads, is a bit softer and more forgiving on bad roads. Also, 16" wheels help and are better suited to the chassis than 17" wheels.

I bought these a while ago basically to store my B5 on; they have seen the road for about 200kms back and forth to the paint shop. No scratches, bends, rash, nothing. The tires are Nankang 215/35s and have some camber wear but could easily be used for the remainder of this season and next season.

four tires (Continental DW)

Little bit too late, but i ma using the same tyre now. First impressions are really good, its quiet and comfort, acting well also. For that price i think you cant beat them with anything.

Ive had them on the car for 2 weeks not 215/35/18. Yeah probably aren't great in the snow, and they are only rated to H but Im not going above hundred ever. Bid Deal. They do stretch GREAT and Thats honestly the reason why i got them:thumbup:. If you read the reviews they are decent but not crappy by any means. I'm running -2.5 degrees in the rear on air ride and I'm not spending $500-$800 to go through tires in 10k miles

My Conti's sound like a 4x4 going down the road
