For what it's worth - looks like amazon has the Continentals - free shipping for prime members (its baked into the tire cost).

Perfect how do these compare to the latitudes sport 3s and conti sport contacts in the dry?

My buddy is getting delivered on Monday for his q7 sport peelers same size as us.
I'll ask him for detailed review.

My GTS had the Accelera Iota 295/3521 tires when I purchased it. I was thinking about getting winter wheels and tires until I tried them in the big snow storm we had here. They worked very very well despite everyone saying you can't use 21" rims in the snow. The tires now have approximately 32k miles on them and are starting to get into the wear bar. So I just ordered another set from Cali for $650 shipped. If this were a track car I would get some pirelli's summer tires but since it is only a DD and for longer highway trips I am very happy with performance in wet/snow/ and dry, especially with the mileage I got out of the current set. I had some michelin's on my Denali that lasted 80k miles and were awesome in the snow but were also close to $1,600 per set.

Can you pm me where you bought? Are they all seasons or snow? Anyone lvoe their dws still? I love my summers I might jaut do Summer's on 21s or possibly dws then 18 or 20 mud and snow tires :-)

Thanks! Anyone have experience with the accelera tires or have had enough miles on the new dws. I'm most interested in handling when dry vs the latitudes and cross cuts, and snow perforce is an added benefit.
I like my dws before on my s6 but did not appreciate the soft sidewall. Are the accelera s any stiffer? My gf has been complaint the cross contacts are riding stuff but to me it's a German car riding on 21s...

These tires are supposed to last twice as many miles than the Pirellis. I believe that as the Pirrelis wear out stupidly fast.

Thanks for that! I've had two sets of the cross contacts and one set of Michelin Latitudes, I liked the Michelin stiffness and grip, but like the conti ride. Perhaps the DWS will make me happy.
For the money I may try out the Brand mentioned above. Not sure how they compare back to back
Part of me might just add another set of wheels and tires for the winter/mud. Something about 18-19 riding through a foot off snow and hitting the muddy trails sounds appealing.

I think I'm going to do the same. I have never wanted to take up the extra space to store a set of extra rims and tires, but now running 21"s I would almost be running the cheap stock rims and winter tires for free given the cost savings not running the 21" rubber year around and have a better safer ride for it in the winter.

an anyone else comment on longer use? Seems like it's stupid not to try the accelera at this Price? What do you all think?
