Anyone have experience with Continental Extreme Contact Sports?

Looking at maybe upgrading to these for the R.

Those look like the successor to the extreme contact DW which I have on the caddy. Overall I have been pleased with them. However I do have one that seems particularly noisy as it rolls. I know it's the tire because when I switch back to the DWS's are quiet.

Looking at these for the vette next year. I absolutely loved my dws from continental on my mustang. The tread held up great and they were comfortable and quiet. I would like to think these will be just as good.

Overall Continental has been hitting it out of the park lately.

I have the DWS, DW, Sport Contacts and Control Contacts on all the vehicles and have been highly pleased. They perform great and are quiet (except the one DW).

I have the Continental Extreme Contact DW on the TA, which I believe is the predecessor. Traction, impact harshness and impact noise, and affordability are awesome. Hard to gauge regular road noise because my car is otherwise so noisy. I mainly bought because Michelin’s PSS doesn’t come in my stock wheel size. I had a hell of a time balancing these, though, and went though a few different machines before a road force balance machine did the trick. Even now, they sometimes feel wobbly in cold temps until they warm up. However, my car mostly sits so it could just be flat spotting from infrequent use and soft summer tire compound.

I have these on the Cobra right now.
They have excellent traction in both dry and wet.
They're also fairly quiet and have a much better ride than the GoodYear's which were on the car before.
Worth getting IMO.

I have the EXTREMECONTACT DWS 06 on my jag. Very decent tire,
dws stands for dry/wet/snow, there is a wear indicator on the tire a d,w,s that will let you know when the snow grip is diminished.
great traction, not a lot of road noise, wears very well.

as far as normie tires by default suggestions are conti dws for all seasons and conti dw for non-event summers.

I have them in my Boss 302 and like them a lot. I previously had the now discontinued DW and liked those too.

The Extreme Contact Sport is a little bit stiffer than the DW. Dry traction seems to be a little better and wet traction feels just as good as the DW.

I had my Extreme Sports installed right before my last trip to the tail of the dragon in August. They took everything I threw at them. I didn't even try to find their limits. I was pushing them to the point where my DWs would have started giving feedback.

I ended up with the Michelin PS4S' on the GTI, and really couldn't be happier, really transformed the car
