Off-black Cadillac (2013 ATS 2.0t/6mt)
#56
So I ordered up those Conti DWS tires. They got in, a week later I also ordered a full set of OEM Cadillac rims, and pulled two of them to replace my 2 front rims, which previous owner had scuffed. I had firestone tire in winchester unmount both full sets, remount the Continentals, move the TPMS to the new rims, etc etc. They did an ok job, but it was expensive as shit - $230 for that labor. I didn't ask before I had them do it because I kind of figured $10/tire rough estimate so maybe $120 + tpms rebuild which I dont think is another $110

Anyhow - day 3, I notice I got a slow leak, and also the TPMS is not synced to the right tires. Idiots. Look in manual, requires that TPMS tool to reset the corners. So I go back down there and also get them to check the tire for the leak - sure enough, a damn screw in my brand new tire. They took it off the rim and patched it from the inside. They ended up doing this for free, probably because they knew they messed up on the TPMS. Overall satisfaction rating B- I guess.

Got a chance to test the tires Friday night in winchester when it started snowing and raining at the same time, completely covering the roads in a short period of time. I drove home trying to stay in other people's tracks, etc. The tires performed awesome, no slippage. Way better than I expected.
