Conti Extremecontact Sport

About to pull the trigger on a set -- currently with the PSS.
.
.
The price is great and they should be very comparable to the MPSS but with better wet weather capability. I have a non-staggered set for Alabama winters.

Continental Tire admits that the PSS is the best all-around performing tire they’ve seen and there’s a reason that it is popular among enthusiasts.*
Continental’s goal with the new ExtremeContact™ Sport was to produce a tire that could go head to head in performance (with the PSS) and for some people would consider a better tire,
especially in the wet.

WOW! Go TEAM GO

100 looks no replies --- NO TEAM LOVE.
.

Well -- I tried to pull the trigger on the Conti Extreme Sports but without any replies I was left to make the choice without the help of Team 2.
.
So I looked into the Specs of PSS vs Conti and found the Conti to be more narrow. Then I posted on the old faithful E90post and found a guy who had worn a set of the Conti's out in 10k (rears) & said they were loud as they wore out blaming the narrow tire for the aggressive wear.
.
.
So -- I just purchased the same set I have MPSS -- the car was designed with these so how could I not just go with them. I love them - just wanted a little better wet traction. My winter set is nearing its life's end -- so that will be my next tire decision come December.

Cheers

MPSS are pretty amazing, on my 235 they were crazy good in the wet.
I know a guy with a CL AMG and he won't deviate from Conti Extreme Conti's for that car.

Well, you didn't ask a single question.

Tire Rack -- WOW

Tires Just arrived -- ordered on Sunday and now here they are 2 days later.
.
Impressive ~ Thanks Tire Rack
.
.
I have new TPMS to go with these -- I purchased my summer wheels from a form member without TPMS so it will be nice to get it all together.
.
MPSS one more time -- or another 20k miles
