Tires YOKOHAMA or Continental

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 bought some Yokohama YK520s. As for performance they drive well and don't seem to squeal as much when they spin. The handling is very good and the ride is about the same as the Michelins. They road noise is also similar. They handle wet real well

I have Sdrives on my car, and love them. They suck in the snow, but are great in the wet and dry.

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.

I've had great luck with the Conti LX on my V6. Excellent smooth & quiet road tire, and long wearing as well. My original Dunlops lasted 30K, the Conti LXs over 50K. This second set of LXs looks barely worn with the car at 100K.

The Continental Contisport Contact2s I've got on my Vette have been excellent tires

For my A3, I went with Yokohama W.Drive's and they've been great so far...just a tad expensive! $375/tire at the local dealer...but since I needed them quick and no one else had any tires for my titanium option 18" wheels and most were sold out for the season, I said f*ck it and bought them. They should last me for a few winters...

ran my bs rs960's at 37 lasted 37k . . . wierd excellent performance through the thread life and probably could have gone 40k, but the thread life was below 5/32. Just got Yoko S.Drives this weekend, set them at 37 as well.
