They are truly an exceptional AS tire.
If you haven't tried it, when it gets warmer, increase the tire pressure by 4-5psi all around. The steering response sharpens up, ride quality is still great, and you'll get a small boost in MPG, especially on longer highway drives.

+1 The Conti DWS on my RWD Cayman performs better than the RE970AS on the 335i xDrive.
The RE970AS is rated at 51 psi max. It deflated over time from 45 to 30 psi (it feels like an absolute dud at 30 psi). Decided to take it up to 50 psi (sweet). It really does improve the overall road feel at the higher pressure. Pleased with the feedback and road feel at the higher pressure. But wet road traction is marginal and snow condition is absolutely abysmal.
