Which Tire?

Need to choose between Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 and Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires. For all around city/highway/backroads driving, which would you choose?

(This is for a 2022 SS. 20 x 10 front w/ 285/30/20 and 20 x 11 rear w/ 305/30/20.)

He is asking about all-season Michelin and Conti variants, though (presumably because PA winters are not particularly forgiving), and the DWS06 is a very strong contender there. Its successor, the DWS06 Plus is the uncontested winner in Tirerack's ratings.

I’d go for the continental all seasons if I were you. Although whichever is cheaper is best, tbh.

michelins will last twice as long and somehow 99% as the DWS06. you can't go wrong with either type of tire.

the SS sedan rear michelins weren't available in XLs a couple years ago so that was an annoyance for SS sedan, probably camaros don't "require" XLs in back.

currently running all DWS06 in SS Sedan....

but I had PS4s in front DWS06 in factory sizes for years and it worked fine,i sorta liked that setup.

the michelins PS4+in front lasted 2x as long as the DWS06 but cupped bad enough that i swapped them at least 10k before they fully wore. vive la france.
