New Conti replacement for DWS: "Extreme Contact DWS06"

20k is really short. I got a little bit more from my summer tires.

How is the wear on them?

Curious about impressions a few months on from anyone who has the DWS06's?

After running summer tires year-round for 5 or 6 years I've opted to live with a bit of softness. I'm not willing to do a summer/winter trade out and I've had a few too many sketchy winter drives on summer tires. Getting old I guess.

I got 35k out of my set of DWS' back in the day, and that includes 4 track days...

How close are they to the wear bars that are inside the tire ?

These?

Yup. That is them. You still have some life in them.

But what are you rear tire pressure set at? Looks like they might be a bit over inflated due to the wear only in the middle. Or maybe it's just the angle of the picture.
