Tires Pirelli or Continental

Now it's got Conti Extreme Contacts. They are directional, so they can only be rotated front to back which I admittedly didn't do as much as I should.

I went with the Continental ExtremeContact DWS for my 2008 EOS LUX, replacing the OEM Goodyear Eagles. While no snow (yet), I'm very happy with them. The car handling is significantly better and, very importantly, the squeal when accelerating is gone.

These have worked out very well for me. Lasted much longer than the jumbo ecsta asx(?) I ran before.

I put on a set of Continental ExtremeContact DWS in size 235/40/18 about two weeks ago. I've seen plenty of rain and so far have been really impressed with their performance in those conditions.

I've been happy with my Pirell P-Zero Nero M+S... Good in cold, wet, slush, muck and even a few inches of snow... very good in the dry too.

My original Pirelli's were loud after 10K miles. I couldn't wait to get rid of them. The Yoko's are very quiet with exceptional handling characteristics.

A large part of the noise is indeed the tires. They are the OEM contintental touring 235/45-17 and they were inflated to 38lbs. I dropped them to the recommended 35 and the noise and ride improved. I am now realizing that 50% of the sound I'm hearing that is objectionable is indeed these tires.

I had the Continental CrossContact LX installed today. So far fantastic, but, I would expect that any brand new tire would feel great. I am excited not to hear the wamp wamp wamp anymore from the old Pirelli Scorpion STRs.

Car feel slippery, sway little left to right constantly when on freeway (I noticed it only does that when at high speed--freeway speed--especially when vehicle is running on those comb-lines cement paved.

I got me a set of Pirelli PZero Nero M&S tires in March, reading all the good things about them. Right after I got them put on, they seemed out of balance. I took them back and had them rebalanced, and they still acted up. Annoyed, I just let it slide. But today I took it back to the shop and told them to rebalance them. They took a look and said that they had factory defects (\"excessive wheel hop\") and couldn't be balanced. They suggested I contact TireRack. I took it to another shop and had them balance the wheels, thinking that the other shop just might have been having problems with their machine. They balanced them, but the jitter is still there in the steering wheel, exactly at 65 mph and above. Someone mentioned that the tires have a deeper tread, and I should just wear them down a bit and see if it helps. They've only got 2,500 miles on them, but it's really annoying at highway speeds constantly feeling that jitter.
