They ARE better than the RFTs. They are not, in my opinion "night and day" better. The ride is softer and the handling is more fluid. It's still a bit of a stiff ride, although I rather expect this from a performance car.
I do not have adaptive drive (yeah, mistake I think) or active steering (dealer recommended against it) but the Conti's DO make that turn into the parking a little less work.
I think mine is out of balance at the moment - it's at the dealer now, but hopefully when I get it back it will be smooth as silk.

When you do have a flat, and have to change the tire or use a fix-a-flat can and have to replace the TPS, then let me know. Really I don't doubt that non-RFT are better, but the Conti's DWS have such a soft side wall, the vehicle feels like its in water....I don't like RFT BUT for this type of vehicle, I feel it's the best choice...IMHO!!
