If so, then the warranty is often half the miles as for non-staggered. This is due to inability to rotate front to rear.
Yes, i figured, since we can't rotate the tires it will only last long half the miles. I've contacted couple of shops and none of the stores have DWS.

I am just going to get something whatever they have in stock....

Discount Tires never has the tires I want in stock. I always have them order what I want. Don't just go in and get whatever. Whatever they have in stock is likely garbage compared to the Conti DWS. Call them up and make them order them. Won't cost you anything than another week or so driving on your old tires. And now you know for next time.
