Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 PLUS Owner Reviews

What owners say summarised from 38 reviews

Owners are largely very happy with the Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 PLUS, with most praise focused on its standout wet grip and strong dry grip, backed up by confidence-inspiring handling. Comfort is another consistent highlight, and many also find it relatively quiet for a performance all-season. The main debate is longevity: tread life feedback is split almost down the middle, while a smaller but notable group (under one in ten) report soft-feeling sidewalls and a slight hit to fuel economy.

These tires have a decent amount of dry grip, I can still get them to spin a bit on a hard launch, but they excel in the wet, which is why I bought them. I live in central Maine, which can have very varied weather conditions, especially in spring and fall. I haven't had them in snow or ice yet, and will update this review when the time comes.

I bought these tires to replace my Pirelli Pzero’s. I had these before on my CLK550 and figured I’d buy the latest versions due to their excellent wet grip which I prioritize highly and the ability to use them in the winter months and long life. These won’t blow you away in the dry and they’re very nervous under hard braking and hard turns in the dry. But I’ve driven In damn near a monsoon and not once did the car twitch or feel nervous at all. I’ll gladly buy these again or put them on another car even if they’re not as good in the dry.
