I'd recommend that you do at least one of the two above suggestions. Simply a matter of preference and cost. Tires need to be 'matched up' on the axle to maintain overall performance.

If it were me, I get the DWS Conti's for the front, just to keep the same OEM's on the car for overall asthetics. If you're going to change tire manufacturer, because there are quite a few options equally as good or better than the Conti's, then I'd get all 4 because of asthetics. But that's just me!
