Continental ExtremeContact Sport
Got my new tires on today. They are noticeably quieter than the F1's, which is awesome. Going on a roadtrip this weekend to get a better feel of them, but loving them so far.

I'm excited to hear some reviews of these! I was waiting for these to come out before I went with something else.

I have the Extreme Contact Sport on my car when I changed out the tires on my BBS wheels I had on my 5th gen, I originally had Mickey Thompson Street Comp tires... So far very pleased with the Extreme Contact Sport..

I have these in 285/305 and would say that were not as quit as the oem goodyears for me. The ride is good and not sure I improved traction to a super noticable difference from my Good years. Although I am still breaking them in. Almost out of the first 500 miles. So time will tell. They are lighter though.

Looking forward to see how they perform. I might go back to a summer tire from an All Season to get some better traction launching my car. It's the only thing I'm missing out with my DWS 06 tires.

Hmmm not sure where the shop ordered these from, from Cont. I assume. I originally planned on the DWS06 and was told they were discontinued, then ordered these and was told there was ONLY 2 sets available in my size(stock)

I have these on my 1LE replicas. 285/35/20 and 305/35/20. They are much softer sidewalks than the OEM run flats and much quieter. I took a 250 mile trip last weekend and the tires are much less harsh than the OEM tires.

60 miles on them, they are MUCH better than the Eagle F1's.

Just for notation, you aren't going to find a similarly stiff sidewall outside of another runflat other than a road race slick or true rally tire... Pretty much any other tire will have a softer sidewall.

Mine's a DD year round, so I went with the DWS 06, they'll be installed this afternoon or tomorrow. I'm looking forward to less road noise. If the reviews for them are any indication, this should be a great summer tire.

Had mine on for a week. Like them much better in the rain. Also much more quiet in the cabin.
