Let me put it this way: On 2014 date coded PSS, in 60 degree weather, the E90 doesn’t get forward traction until 3rd gear. The DWS all seasons hook up fine (blinks lights in first, but no intrusive interference). Yes, the PSS have more cornering traction, but it’s hard to get over effectively losing the use of the engine in most conditions. Likewise, I have 2009 date coded Conti DWs that still feel good on the E30 M3.

And keep in mind that the e90 M3, coded to Euro mode has extremely permissive traction control.
