I decided to go with Falken FK453CC. It's a very simular tread design to the PSS. I'm getting them mounted this week.

I will post feedback once I have had them for a bit.

How are the Falken tires? I thought of these through Discount Tire but am leaning more towards the Conti DWS.

I'm very happy with the Falken's. Low to no road noise and excellent grip. I cannot speak to how well they handle in the rain due to the fact we haven't had any since I've had them installed.

As a bonus the price of these tires is excellent.

Just ordered the Conti DWS. Should have them in a few days.

We ran the 20" DWS on the 2013 X5 and loved them. Great ride. Quiet. Long life. Excellent handling and good wet road manners. We ordered a replacement set and traded the X5 before mounting them. The new X6M has the Bridgestone RFTs that we will run through the summer before we mount up the DWS set. Glad to see our experience matched yours.

BTW, I run the Conti DW in my C63 and they're a great summer tire. Don't know if they are sized for OEM X M fitment or not, but if I lived in a warm climate I'd consider that route as well.

I am selling my OEM Bridgestone runflats from my X5M if anyone is interested...

Just an FYI to people with X5M's. It's a known fact that our vehicles destroy tires especially in the back because of the camber. I've taken mine for two alignments and no one can get rid of the rear camber.

The nitto motivo is a non directional tire. So they can be rotated from left to right in order to extend tire life.

Just food for thought.
