Spoke to someone at Tire Rack, when I called to complain about these DW tires and they recommend an All Season Tire to get more milage. If I stay with Continental they said move to the DWS? Any advice is greatly appreciated!!

I am shopping for tires, also. I've read some reviews where the PSS tires wear out before the 30K warranty. If you do lean toward an All Season tire, Michelin also makes a Pilot Sport AS-3 that is similar to the PSS. It gets about 45K and performs better in below 60 temps, but when the temps are above 70, the PSS way outperforms the AS-3.
I'm going with PSS. We don't get too cold here in NC, and I'll just drive something else if it snows or gets below freezing. PSS are an absolute no-go if there is snow on the ground.
Hope that helps.
