after reading this ive decided to go with the conti extreme dw's, they were $300+ cheaper and i live in boston where there are no canyons, i do tend to drive on the spirited side but i feel the contis will be good enough for me, i am going down to the dragon this year so i can write a review on how they perform on the dragon. thanks everyone for your help!
