Tires Continental or OEM Subaru

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.

Ending up buying the continental DWS and I am loving it. Like Its so smooth and the road noise is much lower.

The 4 seasons are a great training tyre. They roll well enough for mortals and are pretty durable.

I've rode 4 Seasons, Gatorskins, GP4000s, and prefer GP5000s over all of them for puncture resistance. Plus they have grip.

They seems good through the MN winter, including 2 trips to the North Shore of Superior. It snowed both times, and we never had any issue with traction.

I had the continental contipro contacts on my car for around 6 years. They were good tires, they worked on dry roads and in the snow about as effectively, their rain grip was a little questionable, but what I really hated about them was how fast they wore out.

my conti-extreme got quite loud after they had worn a bit, although they were badly cupped.
