Tires Continental or Nokia

The other snow tire I used in my 14 years of driving is a Continental Winter Contact SI which was excellent on highway winter driving but not as good for snowy road driving.

I got a set of Continental Viking Contact 7 tires for my Impreza last winter when the shop didn't have Blizzaks in my size and I couldn't be happier with them.

I’m running continental extreme contact DWS06 ran me about $150 per tire.

What a difference with the Contes….sooo much quieter. Could be the excitement, but I feel like it’s a bit flatter in the turns.

2013 limited eco AWD on Conti DWS06. I came from an Audi A4 Quattro on Blizzaks in the winter. The Flex ain’t the Audi but it’s pretty good.

Continental dws06 is the way to go. I put them on my

3 and love them.

I put on a set of the Conti's Extreme Contact DWS06 in 225/45-18, and they made a world of difference over the standard Turanzas (I have a base Turbo hatch). Better grip, better steering feel, quieter, and with the slight (I mean slight) increase in sidewall, better ride over bumps and stuff.

I have the continental ExtremeContact DWS! I had the same problem as you and after replacing them my hatch feels way more responsive and more sporty, i got them in the winter and they seemed to do really well with slush and ice

I just put the Continental DWS06 Plus on my 3 hatch and took them on a long trip. Definitely inspired more confidence than the original Toyos I had on the car. Takes a corner nicely. ;) Think road noise is less as well.

I did go with the Conti DWS initially. Hated the noise they made (see my post earlier). I like the P-Zero much better.
