Default New ATR Sport 21" All Season Ties...

Check these new 295/35-21 ATR Sport all season tires out at $149 ea. One catch is they are load rated 103W, 1929lb - not bad - but not the 2103 lb my107Y Continentals are rated. But if you don't tow or haul heavy loads, they might work for you

Just in case, we have stocked Accelera tires and still do. I'm road-testing a set and have been for the past two months, I've got to say that for $200 ea. they are a good deal!

Default I found the holy grail!

Ladies and gentlemen, I have found the holy grail! As of this month Continental is making the EXTREMECONTACT DWS06 in 295/35ZR21! Just ordered four from Americas Tire (they are not on the site but they will special order them for you) and should be installed next week. $335 a piece.

Default That's it

Even cheaper at Tirerack

I prefer Americas Tires as you get free lifetime balance and rotation and a local shop. Regardless, I don't think you can go wrong with these!

Great news.
We have them on an S7 and they work great.
Now to decide whether to get these or dedicated Pirelli snows

@RAKLAW quite the garage! I live in Northern California and my winter driving will be limited to a few trips to Tahoe every year. As such, these will probably work perfectly for me. People that live in "real" winer states may be better off with dedicated snow tires, time will tell!

Spoke to my guy at Tirerack. He states that for a true 295 sized winter tire the Pirelli's are the way to go. As stated above guess only time will tell...

Would be interesting to see how the Continental stacks up against the Michelin or other 21" Summer tires, as it will likely last much longer. So perhaps give up some performance but get a lot more mileage.

Good find.

Something seems too good to be true when looking the specs.
They also do not appear to be Porsche spec tires (at least yet)...

The weight is 28.9 lbs a piece, which by comparison, is excellent.
The wear rating is high, which means it should last longer (curious about sound now).
The load rating is the same as Pirelli/Michelins (2150 lbs)

All in all, they look great at first glance.

I live in PA and have just put a set of DSW06 Continential's on my Cayenne. Will follow-up after we get a few snows to report back. Thus far good dry and wet traction.

Default So far so great

Have driven up to Tahoe a few times this season and the traction has been great. Tires are also awesome in rain and dry conditions. Wear seems to be good as well. Nary a complaint!

Continental now makes 295/35R21 DWS 06 All Seasons. in my opinion it is the best all season tire on the market for the Cayenne.

Right now I'm running Conti 275/45ZR-20 Continental ExtremeContact DWS XL on my 09 Cayenne Turbo S. It handles just as well as my 295/35R21 UHP Summer Conti's but were VERY impressive in snow.

Living in Downingtown, PA we had the worst of the blizzard a few weeks ago. I had 32" in the front yard, less in the back due to wind. I had the Cayenne out on the All-Seasons mentioned above and performed so incredibly well I was blown away. I was pushing through snow 12-24" without a problem while others were sliding off of the road. I was stuck to the ground. I even tried to get squirrely around an S turn on the road to my house but it didn't cut loose. I am in absolute shock at how well they handled. And they aren't N0 approved either.

I swapped my 21" wheels for 20's but have hands on experience. The DWS tire is your best bet. I've taken turns at 100+ and the sidewalls hold like my 21" UHPs.
