Titan01 Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 I just ordered 4 Continental Winter Contact SI in 245/60/18 mounted on 4 Black Drag DR-33 wheels from Discount Tire Direct. I am normally a Nokian Haka 2 guy but I just couldn't justify the extra $$$. I have all brands except the Conti's so I thought I would give them a try. I did run their DWS for a few seasons and they were quite good in the snow. I have used DTD in the past and they have always provided great service and their rebates go along way coupled with free shipping they are tough to beat. Says the longtime TR guy. I will provide an update once I have had a chance to try them out in the snow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omar302 Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 For information, in the order guide there is an option for All-Season (A/S) Snow Chain Compatible Tires & the size listed is 235/60R18. Might want to consider that size. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cds71 Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 we went with the Blizzak DM-V2 P245/50R20.....my wife and I are extremely happy with the performance....even the iciest of roads felt almost like dry pavement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 I believe that both the Continental Winter Contact SI & Blizzak DM-V2 tires are directional rated tires. Because you dismount the tires each spring and remount them in the fall, make certain you are observing the directional arrow on the sidewall. These tires should always rotate in one direction only. (Front to back and back to front on the same side of the car, never across.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01Cobra Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 Mounted up the winter contact si tonight and they are amazing. Even with the bigger sidewall stability is not compromised. Grabs strong in the snow. First part of the snowstorm today I was still on the factory 21s and while it worked the tires did not convey confidence.
