Heads up - great price on Conti DWS -06

Mavis Tire also appears to be STS - or the other way around. Whatever, I went into the local STS store and asked about the Continental ContiExtremeContact DWS06 295/35-21. He came up with a price of $302/each. I mentioned seeing them for less then $300 on line on their website, and he immediately knocked $10/per off.
Considering the best prices I've seen on these is around $340 PLUS shipping - this is a super deal. My experience with these tires was entirely favorable when I had a set on my '06 Cayenne S.. since I'll be needing tires for the '11 Turbo shortly - this would be my choice. And the treadware rating (and 60,000 mile treadwear warranty) is just icing on the cake.
Just a heads up if you're shopping rubber..

Thanks for the heads up. They have no stores in this area.
Bought a set of DWS-6 from a local tire shop but 275 40 20. The out the door price, mounted, balanced, with free lifetime tire rotation was $320/tire. Looks like their pricing was competitive.

Actually - you might want to check TireRack's price. For a 275/40-20 DWS-6, they are $252/each before shipping/mounting/balancing. I would guess the $320/each would be competitive with TireRack.

I purchased Bridgestone tires from TireRack for my CS and had them shipped to a local authorized installer. The tire price was great but the installer fees soured the deal. Shop fee, disposal fee, handling fee...give me a break. Along with this agree to a liability waver.
Never again.
Never again.
Which is kinda why I suggested Mavis/STS. STS has a reasonable reputation for it's stores in NJ, can't speak about other locations.

I've done TireRack tires in the past - and they recommended an excellent local shop - but with their current prices I'd agree. Better in that case to go with the Mavis/STS deal - drive in, drive out (mounted, balanced, road-hazard warranty)- for less then TireRack gets for the same tire after you count your shipping, mounting etc.
