Conti DWS (all season) are amazing in rain, I have them. They even work in light snow. They are all seasons and don't grip as well in the dry though. I know plenty of people running DW (Summer performance) including an F they love them. No issues whatsoever. Lowrideraz's "tire sing" was a needle in a haystack.

Maybe, but I don't think so Continental's crappy customer service certainly wasn't However, it really all turned out for the best, the Bridgestone S-04 is a great tire and handles much better than the Continental DW, IMHO. And I definitely can feel the stiffer sidewall in the Bridgestones

Since we're bumping dead threads I'll contribute.
I bought my ISF with these, and I have an obscene amount of wheel spin. It now makes sense and I think I can blame these crappy tires, thanks to this thread I'm looking into a set of RE11s next. It's embarrassing when you can't even launch and 500rpm spins the **** out of the tires while foot mashed spins for what feels like 2 blocks.
I have had these on my last 2 subarus and they suck. Super uncomfortable, stretch sucked, and the lip hung out when they did stretch. I ran my friends $180 / set of 4 tires, can't remember the name, and they blew these out of the water.
0/10 would not Hankook again

bought the hankooks v12 brand new all around, the tires gripped ok the first couple months but was so loud, i thought my wheel bearings were bad. Lobuxracer actually warned me that he doubt it was a wheel bearing and was probably a tire issue and still bought new wheel hub assemblies just to find out he was right. it was the tires the whole time. I'll never buy again. My completely bald nitto Invo tires are silent compared to 70 percent thread hankook v12s.

Ventus V12 tires blow. My car was delivered with a fresh set of them at all four corners and they're rather terrible, makes me miss my Pilot Super Sports I had on my previous vehicle very much.
