I've had a set of Conti's for the past 2+ years and have been very happy with the wet, dry and noise levels but they are worn out and I'm starting to get a lot of pull on uneven surfaces. I'm looking at the Conti ExtremeContact DWS model and it appears to have great reviews on one of the major tire sellers websites but they are on backorder and I'm afraid that I will need them within the next 30 days just to be safe.
I like the combination of price / performance of the Conti's but don't have a problem spending a few more dollars if necessary. I am not looking for pure dry performance but rather an overall package that is very safe in the wet and can handle very light snow (maybe once a year and it only sticks around for about a week). I have no interest in storing a set of winter tires. This vehicle is used to haul the kids around so safety is my #1 concern.

My girlfriend and I are going with the Conti ExtremeContact DWS on her 323Cic. Given this is a convertible and primarily driven in nice weather the need for the DWS isn't much. But they've received great reviews from every place I've seen and there is the possibility she could get caught in poor weather (it changes really fast here in Denver). I say go with them. I'm considering them for my 4.4i at the end of the summer.
