A lot of folks say the DWS is soft in the sidewall. That's why I've considered the new Yokohama KY580, the Kumho Ecsta 4X, or the General G-MAX AS-03.

They have gotten loud and have some vibration after 2 years of use. Traction in the three dry, snow and rain categories is amazing.

I have 17" DWS on my wrx and i'm already on my second set. They're great, relatively quiet, extremely good all weather traction, and last but not least, inexpensive. I'd buy them again for my wrx.

I have the Bridgestone RE970AS and like them much better than the 960s. The sidewall is very stiff and it sticks like glue.

I'm kind of a noob so bear with me...
Can I put the 18" Continental DWS's on my factory g37x rims?
Also, I have heard the Continental DWS's help address tramlining that our cars are notorious for - however - I also have a set of Michelin Primacy MXM4's which were supposed to help too, but I saw no difference. Anybody know if the C-DWS's helped much in that area and how they might compare to my MXM4's?

Love that tire..
I'm not doing it now (the cars are brand new!) - but this tire will definitely be in the running when my wife's car needs tires - and it would be nice if they were avail in the sizes necessary for my S when it needs tires.
I have them on my daughter's '06 Mazda3 (with 18" MazdaSpeed wheels). Traction is amazing in all weather conditions (well - no idea how they handle in the snow as we have had none in DFW area since she got those tires about a year ago). You can now toss that little car around with ease. Also - lighter by a couple of pounds compared to the RE050's that were on those rims...
