Continental ExtremeContact DWS on Camaro 2SS/RS

I am sure many who are in the market for new tires would like to know exactly what they look like on a Camaro.

I wish someone did this when I was looking.

One of the better options for an all weather tire for this car.

Have any of you had any problems with these tires ? I am considering getting a set of these tires but I keep reading on tire review sites that these tires are very weak and damage very easily going over even a small pothole etc. Many people report getting big bulges on the sidewalls.

I've had mine over just about all types of road and weather for the last 10k miles. Did quite of a bit of dirt/gravel road driving for a few weeks this summer too. The roads here get their fair share of potholes and I've hit two big ones in that time and by big, I mean big and deep enough to cause some hard parts to drag. No issues here.

I've had absolutely no issues with mine so far and I've had them on for 35,000 miles.

These are what I ran on my G8. They we good during the Summer but stiff and lumpy when the weather turned cold here in NE. Last winter I ran Blizzaks instead which were a better choice. Overall I was very happy with the wear and ride quality. I got ~40K miles out of them. One tire did blow on a 3" pot hole at 35mph when new.

I ran a set of these on my BMW e60. These are IMO, the BEST all season tires you can buy that will go through the snow without any problems. I'd get these over snow tires. I really believe they perform just as well and still allows you to keep them on when summer comes around.

So far continuing the great review 10/10
