I just called Continental and they told me that the Continental ExtremeContact DW is discontinued(at lest the size that I use).
That was a damn good street tire.

what size do you use? I love mine.

245/45-17 out back. The DW is a very good street tire, now I'll have to find something else to run out back after the ones I just bought(should get them Friday) wear out. Maybe the 255/45-17(26" tall) will fit and not rub? and 225/50-17(25.9" tall)up front? I run 245/45(25.7" tall) and 235/45(25.3" tall) now and really like the way the car rides and handles on the street with this set up.

why the large sidewalls guys?

rrounds

In my case, I wanted a tire that would lift the car a little. I put over 35k a year on my "S" on all sorts of roads(yes even dirt) and I got tired of scraping my front bumper on the crap that's on the road or the tire bumps in parking lots. I thought I would lose some handling but the car still handles great on the street(I do have larger sway bars). I get better tire mileage, gas mileage is up and the ride is a little softer with the taller sidewall. If my car was ran on the track I would set it up differently but I don't, so I set it up to have fun but to lessen the chance of tearing up the front of the car or taking out my oil pan.

Mr White

any chance it'll be replaced?

rrounds

I think they just discontinued the size I like 245/45-17 not the whole DW tire line.

As much as I like TireRack, if you want information about Continental tires give Continental a call (1-800-847-3349)
