i see. yah, i run the DW's on my Z. first time running conti-tires. usually im on bridgestone polepositions but this time gave it a shot. not bad.

kinda soft for my taste overall but comfy, wide tread, and quiet. grips pretty well too (not as good as my S04 pole positions especially in the wet). im going to give the pilot supersports a try next.

 

I've had cont dws on my 2011 sport for about a month, I can report little to none of any kind of fuel mileage decrease, the ride is improved,and the grip is fantastic, highly recommended! Also Continental is offering 1 year of road hazard free!

 

I have about 14,000 miles on my set up: 205/50-16 on aftermarket 16x7 wheels. The wider wheels (inexpensive at $100 / wheel) made a difference in handling. Gas mileage has not suffered because of the tires but did when two (2) spark plugs unscrewed themselves (beware - the dealer will say it is the coil pack but all you need to do is tighten up the plug but that is another story, which starts with removing the windshield wipers).

The only problem I've had with the DWS is that one (1) and maybe two (2) DWS are out of balance (one requires 3+ ounces and that was true when the same tires were installed on the OEM wheels and the aftermarket wheels).

The DWS were good in a hurricane rain event and in our icy snows that we get in south central Pennsylvania (40,000+ miles on 2011 FIT Sport).
