I have them on the back, so far they are amazing. Especially compared to the stock run-flats. Traction is 100% better, ride is 50% quieter. I've had them for about 8,000 miles now, and tread still looks good. I think they are warrantied to 25k miles on our staggered setup. I will probably replace the fronts with them as well, just to be consistent.

One of the better choices for all seasons on the 6th gen.

One of my run flats (front driver) has a bubble on the sidewall and the other day I hit the curb and cut the passenger front (long story) so I was told it is time to replace them. I'm at 12,000 miles and have it narrowed down to the DWS06 and the BFG Comp 2 A/S. Tough choice as both get great reviews. I'm leaning toward the BFG after reading the Tire Rack customer reviews.

The Continental DWS06 is one of the best A/S tires on the market. We have them on our 2016 Audi SQ5 and they have been great. The only other tire I would consider would be the Michelin Pilot A/S3 if it was me.

Great choice the DW06.

I went with the Comp 2 A/S as it also has strong ratings and great reviews....and cost less.

I have them and they are awesome tires. I got them so I could drive my car year round and originally planed on putting the goodyears back on for summer, but I like these better.

Had them on my '16 C7, excellent tires, 95% of the MPS A/S 3+ at a cheaper price.

Had my stock Goodyears replaced last weekend.
They wore down to the wear bars after 18k miles.
I only put 200 miles on the DWS06, so it's too early to tell but they're definitely softer and quieter than stocks.
I think they roll more on the corners, feels less stable than the GYs but I'll hold my judgement until I put more miles on em.
It could also be the new treads being taller...

I love the looks/profile of the contis. More musculine and handsome looking than the GYs

I have the DWS06's sitting in my basement brand new still not mounted. I am considering keeping them as i have them up for sale in the classified section here. Do you happen to have any pics of them on your car? Just looking to see what they look like up close over the Goodyears in stock size. Bought them about 1 year ago just never mounted them as was garaged most of the winter months.

If I was local I would have bought yours already. :( But it's not worth the hassle and shipping costs for either of us. I already have the back ones now, and just ordered fronts to be put on Friday.

These are the only pics I have, I'll try to take a pic with the whole car.
But it has a more rounder profile as opposed to the more rectangular Goodyears if that makes any sense.
