Continental ExtremeContact DWS 285/30ZR18 93Y

I've only had these tires for roughly a year and driven between 15K to 20K miles or so. I must say, I'm quite impressed with the overall performance of these tires. At this point they're almost bald but that is mainly my fault, everyday I drive the car hard to continue exceeding my driving pleasure. When brand new Dry and Wet traction is flawless, at it's current state I just started slipping a bit under throttle on tight turns @ 40MPH. These tires are monstrous and with the sort of wear they have are still holding up to my abuse. Granted if I have driven softer from the beginning they would probably get to the 30K warranty life span, but come on, Max performance summer tires and you're not going to go all out on them? I'd recommend these tires to anyone willing to push their car's to the limit... recommended you do a lot of suspension work to help them perform as intended. They can be uses for back trails and autoX they can certain to those events with ease, no doubt. I know I put that I would recommend but only for spirited drivers with the knowledge that these tires will not last, these are just for fun and to assure maximum traction until their "death" other than that loook into A/S for longevity .

I shopped for a high performance tires to replace the original tires on my Camaro. I settled on the Continental Extreme Contact DW. I am very happy I chose the Continentals. They are great for high performance driving in the rain and shine of the moderate seasons. They have great input when driving close to the edge. I was impressed at the ride quality of this performance tire, absorbing rough rode conditions. With indicators to let me know when they are wearing and might be losing grip as they wear. A truly Top notch tire!

I used to buy these for my S4 while I was a broke college student because they were cheap. I've never gotten more than 15k miles out of a set. All 3 sets I've had cup in the center, no matter what tire pressure I ran. The centers wear out well before the sides of the tire. I've switched to pilot sports

I had these tires on my C4 Corvette and when I got a 2000 Boxster with Michelin Sport tires it was so loud my earsrwc rang after an hour driving so I put the Extreme Contact Continentals on and the noise level difference was obvious. I enjoy the Boxster much more now.

Where I live in Ca there's no snow but periodic rain in winter. The little Z3 is always a little tail happy but had real problems in the rain. These Conti's transformed the severe wet weather performance to almost summer level of tracking. A huge improvement.
