I needed something better that the factory Pirellis which just have flat after flat after flat. Between two VW with the same Pirellis, they just did not inspire confidence. These continental however, really add what was missing. It’s no wonder why my VW dealership sell so many of these. Thank you for the overview, it helped!

Awesome review and very informative! I've got a 2004 Subaru WRX Wagon that currently has the DWS06 (not the plus) and am going to upgrade to the DWS06+ next week. I've really liked these tires and only now that the tread is basically gone have I been able to get the car sideways in the turns. They have great grip! I found out the DWS06+ exists and figured it was an upgrade to the ones I have now, looks like I was right! I'm looking forward to trying them out next week! Oddly I just drove our family van (2020 chrysler pacifica hybrid with 12k miles on the stock all-season tires) in the rain on the way home and found myself hydroplaning a LOT. Very unsettling feeling. Seriously I've never hydroplaned that much in my life and I've been driving for 23 years! Really surprised me as we've had the van for a year now and I thought I'd driven through more wet weather. This is only hours after my Wife and I have decided to sell it and go back to using our WRX as our main vehicle. Nothing beats a good tire, especially when it's on a good vehicle!

[@markr.9626]

My Mustang GT came with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires and they were fabulous ... They lasted 15K miles and changed them out for Michelin All season tires and drove them for 20K miles (and one track day where it was not too hot)and was happy with the tires, but would not buy them again because I could feel a slight shift with tighter cornering at speed. Once you are spoiled with the Pilot Sport 4S tires ... its hard for any all season to live up to that billing. I lived in Northern Ontario Canada and had the all season michelin tires and they worked out well, but not to where I would expect them to be. I now live in the north east of the U.S. and need an all season tires and decided to try out the new Continentals and used a 35 side wall and upped the width by 10mm. I had them installed this week and am totally impressed with less road noise, better handling, braking, tight cornering (tires are lighter) and a higher overall driver confidence and reliable performance along with the price difference, the decision was that much easier.

Thanks for the review as there was very little on the new Continental DWS 06 Plus.

[@vmax0909]

I would give thumbs up on the DWS06 plus. I can’t speak to the original DWS or DWS06. A friend advised me on flat spots with the DWS06 on his 911. I have not experienced any flat spots with the DWS06 Plus, but again his 911 sits in the garage weeks at a time. It’s now been several weeks on the Continental DWS06 Plus. The tire has completely transformed the BMW 4 series. Better road feel, extremely quiet , and an overall better driving experience. Drove through a spring downpour on the highway with total confidence. Much improved over the Pirelli OEM. I have had this BMW for several years running the OEM Pirelli P7 Cinturato Run Flat, the Continental is a vast improvement. I will be putting the the DWS06 Plus on the BMW F10 535 MSport and the BMW F15 X5 MSport when the RF tires need replacing. As a side note, the cars run dedicated winter tires, Pirelli Sottozero 3 on the 4series and 5 series. Scorpion Winter on the X5. All the winter tires are RF. I actually prefer the ride of the RF softer winter compound over the Goodyear RF Eagle LS-2 on the 535 and the Pirelli Scorpion RF.

If you're replacing "good" tires, you may not feel much difference. The Continentals... they grip like hell. I didn't drive in snow and only drove in the rain once to go to the local store.

@@matsudakodo Yes, and I love them! Nice soft quiet ride on long highway trips. But I just came from the shop today and they said they’re “10-15% worn” and I just put them on this summer. I use winter tires six months a year anyway so that’s fine, just letting you know. I can tell the handling difference though, I could take a curve at any speed with the Pilot Sport 4s, and I feel less confident with the Continentals. I’m usually driving the speed limit (or a bit higher) in a straight line anyway, not tracking my car, so whatever.

[@matsudakodo]

@@josephsmith594 thanks. One of the concerns with my current tires is their squishiness when responding to steering. I need a tire that fixes that but doesn't ruin the ride too much. So between the Pilot Sport A/S 4's and the DWS06 Plus, it seems like the latter is the better choice. Your note is the first I've heard concerning the cornering, but you're coming from Pilot Sport 4's (summer tire) so I understand the difference.

[@davidsaenz6485]

Have owned both on a Lexus IS350 F Sport and Infiniti G35. The real difference was ride quality and noise level. On both, the DWS exceeded the AS3+. The number of complaints for the AS has resulted on the tire being pulled according to a couple tire shops I spoke with.. Got about 15K miles out of both, both were equally effective in rain, snow, braking and dry traction. The Michelins sounded and road like we were in a Jeep or off road SUV. On the car forums, the AS3 had a lot of noise issues.

[@CampusautoCo]

Thanks for sharing

[@CarCounsel]

Completely agree. AS I said in another comment and have warned people for years, the AS3 and AS3+ are way too harsh and unrefined for most cars I see them on. We've had the Pilot Sport All Season, the All Season Plus, and now the AllSeason 3 on the same E39M5 we bought new, and the 3 rides like a RunFlat and now sounds like a cement truck. We are throwing them away with lots of depth left. I think the AS3+ had the same issue but the 4 is slightly better. Then again I've had the same issue with the DWS and DWS06 on other cars as have others, so I'm reluctant to switch to that one on the M5. WIll likely go with a different tire than these two since they both lack the refinement these kinds of cars want for. Thanks for confirming what I'd seen saying and seeing too.

[@NALOW84]

I have the AS3+ on my factory 19" wheels for my G37 and they do ride rough and are noisy. My cheap Lexani LX-Twenty tires on my aftermarket 20" wheels ride much better and are quiet compared to them although dont handle quite as well but I contribute that more to the weight and size difference of my aftermarket wheels.

Avoid the Vredestein. Ruined the E90 Xi we put them on. I've dug into that plus 3 of these and the Nokian is the only one I've put on a couple cars. Just put CC2 on a 2015 CX5 and about to try the Firestones on a E92 Xi and will report back.

We need the a/s 3 back!! Its replacement a/s 4 sucks in rain now.

[@reaper_death23]

Ive had the Michelins on multiple cars and thought they were great but the new AS4 is so hard to get ahold of so my next sets gonna be the DWS06

[@milehighkit4725]

Great review. I do things a little backwards and purchased the tires first :-) Went with the continentals.

[@billwilson4859]

Thanks for the comparison, think I’ll go with the continentals.

[@CampusautoCo]

Good choice!

[@gunsandcars3648]

very helpful, as we can do research on tire rack, the dealers dont want to take time explain difference, just sell whats in stock.

[@CampusautoCo]

I agree. That's one of the things I would like to accomplish with this channel.

[@rollaboutranch4461]

Thanks for all the information

Hi @CampusautoCo great review! I have a 2007 Hyundai Tiburon SE (V6 6-Speed Manual). I am an aggressive but safe driver. moving fomr separate summer and winter tires to UHP all-season, and responsiveness is very important to me. Which do you think would be a better match to my car: the Pilot Sport AS4 or the Extremecontact DWS06+ ? Thank you for your insight!

[@Zakw17]

This was so informative, thank you. I have some used ControlContacts that I bought and they are riding so rough. Mfg in 2017, I think it's time to get rid of them. Seattle freeways are terrible I hope these soften the ride a little.

[@therealgratefulhiker]

Awesome info, brother.. i picked the dswo6 plus over the mich as3 not so much because of price, but i have heard of fast tread wear on the as3s. These dsw06s should be awesome for winter..

[@CampusautoCo]

Good choice!

[@bhagatsingh1491]

Very well explained. Great job I was wondering which tires from these two would be better for BMW x5. ? Front 275 40 R 20 Rear 315 35 R 20 Please suggest Thanks

[@GreenFordFocus09]

Got the Continentals, very good tires, especially at that price. Good tires over stock Hancooks on my Elantra GT N-Line are a very noticeable change. Just point her where you want to go, and she handles it with no issues. Sad that that car didn't get more production and advertising. At least I got one.

[@kewlbean]

EXCELLENT VIDEO, thank you.

[@JaeVoris]

very very informative as I have been researching these two tires. Currently running Pirelli Pzero Nero and need to change em.

[@CampusautoCo]

Glad I could help

[@JaeVoris]

@@CampusautoCo yea I got the Michelin PS AS4 yesterday. Feeling good.

[@kilove1]

Am running the DSW's...but am ready for the AS3+'s...on my next replacement..great video

[@CampusautoCo]

Nice 👍

[@CarCounsel]

I’ve never been more disappointed with a tire. Avoid them if you don’t like a RFT like feel.

[@tommysmith6768]

CarCounsel - KnowItAll TM which tire feels like a rft?

[@CarCounsel]

@@tommysmith6768 The AS3 I took off last week. Hard ride, loud, heavy and inert steering. All the same traits but none of the capability.

[@tommysmith6768]

CarCounsel - KnowItAll TM what did You replace them with

[@guillermoguzman3925]

I got the continentals Good thing I didn’t make a bad choice
