Continental ExtremeContact DWS. Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus are good too, but about $60 per tire more.

I like the Conti Extreme DWS too for an all around great tire for all seasons,
But if you like, even less costly... Check out the Hankook Ventus V12 EVO

^^ You guys need to carry Vredestein tires! My vote is only Vredestein!

FTW! Especially only costing me $650.00 for all 4 on 20s and is better than the stock Continental's! By Price, Handling, Road Noise and Ride Comfort with 35/30 aspect ratio vs stock!

Plus if you have over 45,000 on stock tires you don't need a performance tire!!!

the DWS is not the stock Continental...the stock Conti is nowhere near as good as the DWS

just looked at pricing on Vredesteins...20s are costing $175-200 each online...where are you getting 20s for $150?

Yeah I know I was just comparing the stocks. I really love these tires and am hoping a local retailer has them soon. I do pay a $130.00 shipping fee on top of the $650.00 coming out of Cali. So my total is $780.00, still a great deal on these tires.But remember these are 20s. I think the 19s cost a bit. Sorry meant to post the link too:VREDESTEIN TIRE ULTRAC SESSANTA - Performance Plus Tire


Oh forgot I have a Review Here on them: Review Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta vs stock Tires
