I had DWS on my e90, and the sidewalls are kinda soft. I have no experience with the evo12's. I hear the Hankook sidewall is stiffer than the DWS. If anything, get the newer DWS 06, the sidewalls are stiffer than the DWS. Remember that Conti DWS is an all season tires and Hankook ev12's are summer tires.

Sorry to revive an old thread cause OP may have already bought tires by now. I have the Continental tires on my 2GS and I absolutely love them. They are pretty grippy without a lot of road noise. The wear characteristics are pretty good imo as well. Just my .02, hope it helps.
