Your thoughts: DW, Proxes T1S or P-Zero?

Hey, i have now sold my oem run flats...

I had the ExtremeContact DW before on my 328 and i did like it alot.

But i am also considering those two other options :

The Toyo Proxes T1 Sport and the Pirelli P-Zero.

They wont be run flat. They are all about the same price also.
I belive the Continental will last longer. But does the other two performs better in both DRY and WET traction?

I haven't had much experience with the Toyos, but the Continentals have gotten a good response from our customers. It's a pretty solid tire!

If your alignment is good you shouldn't have much of an issue.

I would go with the Conti DW. I'd perfer the DWS now but I guess that’s because I'm in NJ and weather sucks. But for summer tires DW is pretty comfy and has awesome grip in dry and wet compared to Pirelli P-Zero from my experience. Never looked at Toyo. If prices are the same then go with Conti

Conti DWS, these tires are unbelievable. Great performance in all weather (Colorado winters / California summers), I have 30k on mine and they still have 5-6mm of tread all around.

^Strictly for summer driving, I'd go with the DW over the DWS, but I definitely think the DWS is one of the best all-seasons available right now.
