I have 15K miles on the Continental DWS tires that I put on my 2014 SS Sedan and love them. Been driving on light snow/icey roads this week without any issues. It was 20F driving to work yesterday. I commute 140 miles round trip.

Need to get some DWS's for my 2013 Mustang GT as it's a death trap below 55F with it's summer P-Zeros.

I have the new DWS06 and have driven in some light snow/slush and we have cold weather now here in Mass. I have also driven with the previous gen DWS on my G8GT.

I am REALLY liking the new 06s. Handle the slush in the roads a lot better now.

I agree with the ratings too (even though not many miles reported yet).

Thankfully more sand than salt (salt stops working at colder temps) but essentially. lol

Glad to hear the DWS 06 is a great tire, that's what I picked out as well.

Reminder... they are not snow tires. They have limits. But they do in a pinch.

We had a similar day here. I'm totally getting these tires.

Glad to find this thread... 2SS should be here soon and needing to match it up with a good set of all seasons. I'm not really planning on driving the car much in winter, but in case my SUV daily driver has problems, would like the option. Continental DWS06 were going to be the option I went with. Glad to see the good reviews from the folks above...

Just got Continental DWS06 installed today. Had Tire Rack ship to the tire place 1/4 mile away. It's funny, but tires were scheduled to be put on Tuesday. Had to reschedule because tire shop had too many guys out sick. Had two inches of snow that evening and when I went to pick up Camaro in summer tires that night, I couldn't move it in the level parking lot. I knew summer tires were not suited to snow (obviously), but had no idea how worthless they were. Anyway, got the Continental DWS06 because of recommendations in this thread, so thank you all.
