Nice. I was torn between these and the continentals, but decided to go with michelin for the same reasons. Will be having the dealer put them on when I take delivery later this winter!
When I had my G80 I was running the DWS 06 Plus as a winter tire. Perfect for mid-Atlantic winters, but like you mention, you give up some feel and response. Grip levels are still great overall, it's just a much less precise experience especially on a warmer day. If you haven't done it yet, pick up the Millway monoball bushings. Makes a huge difference in steering response and maybe a smidge more feel.
@@ferozmoto6766 It's my top mod for sure. I'm looking at maybe getting into a G82 Xdrive soon (my G80 was a manual like yours) and it will be the first thing I do. With summer tires on you have a lightning quick front end. Reminded me a lot of my GT350, which just had monstrous racecar-like turn-in response.
After more driving I have come to peace with my decision, I would give the Contis a try since they are cheaper next time but can’t go wrong with either.
The background music was fine at first I didn’t notice but through the video I did start to notice it and it progressively got more annoying. Great video though.
Thanks for the review. Very informative. I will likely go with those tires as I’m in NY. I have a G80 waiting at the port.
I’m glad the video helped! Congrats on your g80!
Can't wait for you to try the 135i for all the steering feels
Yes! I hear your generation has some of the best.

I’ll definitely consider getting those mono balls! Thanks for the suggestion 🙏

@@ferozmoto6766I second this. Monoballs up front and toe links in the rear with a good alignment is all worth the money.
@@fireboltjd Monoballs getting installed soon. Stay tuned!
So if you had to decide again would you go with these or the continental DWS6 ?

Noted. Thanks for the feedback!
If you bought them from Costco, I think you can exchange them within 60 days
Nah I’m def going to keep them. The cold morning grip has already proved their worth! Thanks for letting me know tho!
