We run these tires on my wife’s Volkswagen CC and they are a good all seasons tire.

I have a 1999 996 C2 cabrio and this is my first 911, so I don�t have anything to compare it too, but I felt compelled to let everyone know that I�ve had an excellent winter driving experience with this combo. I live in Michigan and now that it�s February, we�ve seen some snow and this car with 18� Conti Extreme Contact DWS tires is a joy to drive. Plenty of traction and feels very stable in the snow and ice. Certainly not as good as dedicated winter tires, but still, I�m really enjoying driving the car this winter. The car�s design I�m sure helps as well. Traction control, weight distribution and lsd are all adding to the equation. The removable hardtop has been a nice addition too this winter. That�s all. Just wanted to make a comment in case anyone in the great white north was looking for an all season tire option. These are more than serviceable!
While I don't have a set on my 996 I do have a set of the Conti Ext Cont DWS06 on My Honda Civic Type R. If these are the tires you are talking about they are pretty good on dry warm roads/wet roads as well!
Yeah, I had those tires on my Boxster S back in 2009. They were tested in the Arctic Circle back then and had twice as much snow and ice grip as any other all season tire
We run these tires on my wife’s Volkswagen CC and they are a good all seasons tire. But they are a compromise, no where near as good as a true winter tire and no where as good as a high performance summer tire.
I had them on my first 996 and liked them. They did fine in mild winter and crunchy ice/snow and ok during summer. Noisy as they wore down. They were money well spent.
