I just put those on last week and they have been excellent so far, even got to test out the wet grip driving through a pretty nasty thunderstorm one evening. Mine are the DWS -06+ version. Running 265/35/19 front and 285/35/19 rear. Even with such a wide contact patch I have been impressed with their grip in the wet. I haven't run a Continental tire since my old '95 M3 back in college, usually use Michelin for everything.
