Continental DWS
 
I have a 2010 base touring, my back tires where done (15000 miles) so I tried replacing just the back with DWS. The difference in tread from OME on the front and DWS on rear is screwing up the traction control, steering and overall feel.

I am going to replace the front too. Did anybody else notice this with just two new tires?

I have seen other people on this board who love the DWS. I live in upstate and might get caught by a stray April if not May snow storm so I thought all seasonal would not be a bad idea. I thought the Continentals might last a little longer too.

For those that are running all four Continental DWS, do you feel any of this?

Normal. Be thankful you have not wrapped the car around a tree. Just a bad ideal all around to have such mismatched axles of adhesion. There are a few threads of others who have done the same so don't feel too bad :D

I run Dunlop a/s as my winter wheel and just put on 4 new s04s to replace the oems. Fronts still had a few 32nds but a matched set is almost always the best way to go.

Get those fronts on :)
