I'm not a race car driver

I bought some Continental DWS tires to replace the P Zeros for the winter, ones that actually fit my 20's. If I can make it through the light to medium snow, then they may never leave the wheels. I can already tell you the ride is so much smoother, even compared to P Zeros in the warm sun.

Depends on what you're looking for. If smooth ride is more important to you then those will be the way to go. But I'd be willing to bet the Pirelli's have a lot better grip in warmer weather. More grip means safer

Were they the 275/40/20's for the rear? I don't believe they have 245/45/20's for the front in the DWS series?
