Availability will depend on wheel size but my two go to choices that work very well and seem to last a while are:

https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...emeContact+DWS
or
https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...ll+Season+Plus

Either one has performed well in the snow conditions of the Colorado Front Range. Overall they have great handling characteristics too.

I have Conti DWS06 on my 2015 R-Design. They offer good ride & decent handling. I think they are superior to the OEM Pirellis that came with it.

If you have a Discount Tire or America's Tire chain near you, get the Continental Control Contact Sport A/S. They are an exclusive "equivalent" of the Extreme Contact DWS 06. Confirmed by phone call with Continental customer support. They claim it has a slightly different tread and sidewall to last longer. Discount/America's Tire sell both versions, but the Contact Sport is exclusive to their chain and is priced less than the DWS 06.
