For the last 15 years, I've only purchased Continentals and Generals (a brand owned by Continental) on various vehicles. This includes the DWS's, winter and other tires. I've heard about soft sidewalls and poorer steering response, but that never seemed my impression. In fact, I've owned two Porsche Boxsters (one with DWS's and another with Extreme Contact Sport) and never noticed the degradation of steering. In fairness, if I spent my time doing track days, the Michelins might be superior, but in my case, not worth the added cost.
