Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 PLUS Tire

The Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 PLUS is the tire you want if you drive a sports car, performance sedan, SUV, or CUV and demand exceptional handling and confidence in all seasons. This ultra high performance all-season tire is designed to outperform its predecessor, offering improved braking in both dry and wet conditions, as well as enhanced traction in snow and ice.

Key Features

With its updated performance-tuned tread compound and asymmetric tread design, the ExtremeContact DWS 06 PLUS is engineered for superior handling and braking. Here’s what sets it apart:

• SPORTPLUS+ Technology: This innovative feature ensures enhanced handling and braking performance.
• Macro-Blocks and Chamfered Edges: These elements significantly improve dry road traction and cornering responsiveness.
• Hydroplaning Resistance: Generous high angle and circumferential grooves efficiently evacuate water from the contact patch.
• 3D Sipes: These provide handling precision and increase wet traction with additional biting edges.
• X-Sipes: Designed to enhance grip in challenging weather conditions.
• Traction Grooves: Improve snow-to-snow traction for winter driving confidence.

Alignment Verification System

The ExtremeContact DWS 06 PLUS includes an Alignment Verification System that helps identify any vehicle misalignment issues early on, preventing uneven wear. The Tuned Performance Indicators, visible on the tire, let you know how well the tire is performing in different conditions:

• DWS: Indicates sufficient tread depth for dry, wet, and snowy conditions.
• DW: After the "S" wears away, this indicates appropriate tread for dry and most wet conditions.
• D: Once both "W" and "S" have worn away, this signifies adequate tread depth for dry conditions only.

Durable Construction

Built to last, the ExtremeContact DWS 06 PLUS features a high-strength, 2-ply sidewall construction that enhances resistance to damage. The Sport Sidewall Insert further boosts handling responsiveness, while the triple-action hybrid cap ply combines stiffness for improved handling with flexibility for a smooth, quiet ride.
