Continental ExtremeContact DW
The Continental Extreme Contact DW is an ultra-high performance summer tire that gives your sports car or luxury crossover powerful grip and sharp, sporty handling. For a strong balance of performance and reliable wet weather traction, choose this tire. Its features include:
This ultra-high performance summer tire is perfect for sporty coupes and sedans.
It’s engineered for serious performance and comfort on dry/wet summer roads.
This should not be driven in temps at/near freezing or in conditions such as ice and snow.
The ExtremeContact DW uses an asymmetric tread design with chamfered tread blocks and a continuous, notched intermediate rib for cornering power.
Thanks to this tire’s continuous center rib, you’ll have constant road contact for straight line stability and powerful braking/acceleration.
With open lateral grooves, wide circumferential grooves and notched shoulder blocks, this tire dominates, even when the roads are soaked in water.
Its Tuned Performance Indicators, visible letters molded into the tread, help you monitor tire performance levels. When you can’t see the “W”, wet grip is gone.
For optimal treadwear and performance, this tire rolls off the line with 10/32” tread depth.
With its twin steel belts and spirally wound jointless nylon cap plies, this tire delivers a smooth, stable ride at high speeds.

Chose Continental based on previous experience & tread pattern. When I collected the car after fitting, the tires did not look new & once home I tried 3 times to clean & remove some coatings on the tire sidewalls but could not. Also the road noise was quite noticeable. I checked the year the tires were made & found they were manufactured in Brazil in September 2015. They were already about 18 months old when fitted. This may explain the appearance & ride quality. I returned to the store & had a different brand tire fitted. The personnel at the store were extremely helpful & I feel I was treated as a valued customer. This was very much appreciated.
