For winter I'm running Conti DWS on 17's and they've performed well. In snow my only limitation has been ground clearance.

Pros: performed well in snow
Cons: ground clearance limitation

I went with the Continental ExtremeContact DWS for my 2008 EOS LUX, replacing the OEM Goodyear Eagles. While no snow (yet), I'm very happy with them. The car handling is significantly better and, very importantly, the squeal when accelerating is gone.

Pros: better car handling
Cons: squeal when accelerating

I put on a set of Continental ExtremeContact DWS in size 235/40/18 about two weeks ago. I've seen plenty of rain and so far have been really impressed with their performance in those conditions.

Pros: impressed with rain performance
Cons: steering response squishy

Rating 4.0

A large part of the noise is indeed the tires. They are the OEM contintental touring 235/45-17 and they were inflated to 38lbs. I dropped them to the recommended 35 and the noise and ride improved. I am now realizing that 50% of the sound I'm hearing that is objectionable is indeed these tires.

Pros: noise and ride improved
Cons: discordant tune on surfaces

They were replaced with 205/65 X 15 Continentals on VW alloys (15X7) and after 15,000km still look like new, but they are noisy.

Pros: still look like new
Cons: they are noisy
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 15000 km
