Seems to be the most tire you can fit on the OEM wheels. I've read good things about the Continentals ExtremeContact DWS. :dunno:
The ExtremeContact DWS's are pretty good all seasons. They have excellent snow grip for what they are. I literally plowed a path out of our driveway with my lowered Evo when we had 18 inches a couple years back.
However, don't think they are summer tires. I understeered bad on the first hard turn I took in the Evo after I swapped to my winter setup.
Overall, for the price, they are great tires if you're ok with them not being the most grippy thing around in the summer.
Can I look for something a step above without sacrificing rain traction or colder temps? Keep in mind amazeballs winter performance isn't a must have as I do still own a jeep for shitastic weather.
