Interesting...I'm looking for a replacement for my 225/50 Ecsta XS (on 12.5 lb 16x7s). I've had the Conti DW on a different, much heavier rwd car (255/40-17) and thought they were great in that application, but overall I like the XS better (performance-wise...the DW clearly are better in the wet, and in noise/comfort). Do you autocross/track your car at all? I'm just curious to hear your feedback on why you like the DW better than the XS..
