Neighbors Ask us...

Are Continental tires premium?

Yes. Continental is a Tier 1 premium tire brand, consistently ranked alongside Michelin, Bridgestone, and Goodyear in independent testing. They're OE on Tesla, BMW, Porsche, and many other premium vehicles. Their focus on braking and performance technology makes them a standout in nearly every category.

What does DWS mean on Continental tires?

DWS stands for Dry, Wet, and Snow. It's a feature on the Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus where the letters D, W, and S are molded into the tread. As the tire wears, the letters disappear in order - when the S fades, the tire has worn past its snow-capable tread depth. When the W fades, wet performance has diminished. It's a visual wear indicator that tells you exactly what your tire can still handle.

Are Continental tires good for Tesla and EVs?

Continental is one of the most popular OE tire suppliers for Tesla and other electric vehicles. Models like the EcoContact 6 and select TrueContact options feature low rolling resistance compounds and quiet cabin acoustics designed for vehicles without engine noise, along with structures engineered to support the added weight and torque characteristics of electric powertrains.

Best Continental tire for Tesla?

The Continental EcoContact 6 is purpose-built for electric vehicles, optimized for the unique demands of Tesla and other EVs. However, Continental is OE on Tesla across multiple models, so models like the ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus are also excellent choices. For performance-focused driving, the ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus combines all-weather capability with the braking performance Continental is widely recognized for. Visit us or call to discuss which Continental tire matches your specific Tesla model and driving style.

Continental vs Michelin - which is better?

Both Continental and Michelin are globally respected premium tire manufacturers. Michelin is well known for long tread life and ride comfort. Continental places strong emphasis on braking performance, advanced tire technology, and balanced tread life. Independent tests routinely show both brands performing at a high level across multiple categories, with different strengths depending on the tire and application.

Why buy Continental from Tire Discounters instead of other retailers?

Two reasons: expertise and value. Other retailers treat tires like commodities. At Tire Discounters, our ASE-certified technicians know Continental inside and out - they'll match the right tire to your vehicle and driving style. Plus, every 4-tire Continental purchase includes Free Alignment ($129.99 value), Free Oil Change ($114.99 value), Lifetime Rotation, Lifetime Balancing, Free Flat Repairs, and Free Roadside Assistance. That's over $1,000 in real value that competitors skip or charge for. Big-box stores can't compete with that package.

Are Continental tires good for wet weather and rain?

Yes – Continental is widely recognized for their braking performance, and that shows in wet conditions. Continental tires are engineered with a strong emphasis on wet braking performance. Features like advanced silica compounds and specialized tread patterns are designed to help improve stopping confidence in rain and low‑traction conditions.
