Default 944 S2 Tires

I'm choosing between the Conti Extreme Contact DW (summer) or DWS (all season). Car does not see rain or snow, just a few cold, clear mornings in the winter. Will summer tires be ok? Thoughts?

Summer only tires will not provide any traction below 35 degrees. They will become hard and not grip. I would recommend definitely staying with a performance all-season DWS. Please give me a call if I can help.

I would take it easy in the cold and just experiment with handling with low grip, and then use grip at full during the summer with summer tires. If you want best performance all the time you need two sets of tires really.
