Tires Continental or BFGoodrich

I got 205/55/15 Continental ContiExtreme Contact from Tire Rack. I think they were $68/tire. Best all-season performance tire for the price. Great dry,wet, and snow traction.

Precisely the reason why I looked for the Conti's on my quiet, silky smooth ride new car. Until I ride in someone's car with better ones, I'm happy.

my new car, the white love wagon II , came with the conti's but I haven't even begun to break them in, or the engine for that matter with less that 200 mi on the car......but in my first impression the conti's seem quieter that the mxv4 pluses......

Another case of 'ignorance is bliss' perhaps, but I'm favorably impressed with my Conti's (8600 miles since new on 9/11) for quietness, ride, and traction (wet/snow).

I think the Contis get bashed because they look skimpy and performance leans towards comfort and quiet. I have driven 4000 miles in various conditions and can't complain. They've never squealed, skidded, growled or aquaplaned and they give a silky smooth ride.

Guys - good news I took it all apart, inspected it and honestly, it all looks mint when compaired to the passanger side. I put on my winter wheels in all 4 corners: 14" steelies w/ 205/60/14 BF Goodrich Winter Slaloms (Yeah...I know, it's september...bear with me) Anywho, I took it to the local gas station, got all the tire pressures even (32 PSI) and took it for about a 5 mile drive, There isn't a single noise comming from anywhere, the car rides and feels like buttah

I have Continental Viking Stop 4000 on 15\" steelies; Yup, there's studs in it

I've always run my car with 195/60-14's. I use BFGoodrich Comp T/A HR4-2's and live in MI and it goes through snow really well.
