O.K I did it. Got the Contintal Cross Contact UHP 285/50/18 put on this afternoon. Driving home they seemed to be very quiet and smooth running.

Pros: quiet, smooth running

Kumho Tires

I liked PS2, it was pretty durable as well. Kumho mx was a pretty good deal for 225/40/18. Grip was good for the price, though a little weak on wet surface.

Pros: good grip, durable
Cons: weak on wet surface

Kumho Tires

The Victoracers are pretty good and work well if the track conditions don't get too hot. Otherwise, they get just a bit greasy but still a good tire overall.

Pros: good tire overall
Cons: get a bit greasy
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I was told to run right around 40psi in my Continental ExtremeContact tires. I was running about 38 in my Michelins with no adverse effects.

Pros: no adverse effects

The Continental ContiExtreme Contacts are awesome. In my opinion, they are the best kept secret out there for someone who wants a high-performance all-season tire.

Pros: awesome, high-performance

I'll second the continentals. I have them on my car for 2000 miles now and I think they are a great tire, good traction in all conditions. I had 205/50's on my car before and to me, they look too small in the wheel well. Just my opinion.

Pros: good traction, great tire
Cons: look too small
Mileage: 3218 km

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.

Pros: Great dry, wet, snow traction

Over the last few days have had to panic stop twice, and I have to say that I'm very un-impressed by the dry stopping ability of these tires; I expected much better. Have been seeing a bunch more ABS use since these tires too .. for the money, they're not bad, but my money is going to Dunlop next time around ..

Pros: not bad for the money
Cons: unimpressed by dry stopping, more ABS use

I certainly hope they've improved them since '99, because mine were definitely Craptinentals. It was like driving on roller skates.

Cons: like driving on skates
