I had a few issues with my tires lately and decided to get 4 new tires.
After stressing out about to buy RunFlats or Regular I finally decided to go with regular tires. Then the next Biggie What Brand.
I decided on Continental Extream Contact DWS.
after a few weeks still very happy I did. I did have a reset issue on the TPMS but all is great now!
I decided on 205/50-16. The ride is equivilant to changing Mud Tires to Car tires. Major, Major comfort difference! very quiet smooth ride.
Glad I did it!

 

glad to hear that too! I will change regular tires too :-)

 

I changed to michelin pilot super sport and while the ride difference hasn't been as shocking as I was hoping, the level of grip that I have gained over the RFT is amazing. An extra bonus is that I lost very little steering feel. I highly recommend these tires if you are looking for a high performance summer only tire (I run winter tires from November to April)

 

I just put them on my TDI Jetta Sportwagen about 6k miles ago.The DWS has a fairly soft sidewall and you'll notice a slight lag in steering response, but otherwise a great tire. Not sure if the steering response thing goes away or if I just got used to it but I dont notice it anymore. They grip quite well in all conditions, dry, wet and were also quite well in snow.

 

Recently got the same tires, agree, major nice difference! Was at my dealership today and noticed no RF's on the new Minis....hmmmm...maybe they heard us!
