Continental ExtremeContact DW Latest Reviews
What is good?
Excellent cornering/braking grip and very stable in high speed (55+) avoidance maneuvers.

Too loud on my 2007 Lexus IS350. Some road surfaces make little noise at all, but newer asphalt seems to be loudest.

Comments
Wet grip and hydroplaning resistance still good with only 4-5/32s of tread remaining. Only deeper standing water in road troughs makes any difference in traction. I have gotten 38,000+ miles with the first 5-6/32" of treadwear.
