#1312 of 1335 Tires For a 98 Contour SE 2.5 automatic by jim1sn1 Nov 20, 2005 (4:38 pm)
Hi Connor, My Contour has the 16" SVT Cobra rims and 205/55R16 Dunlop SP Sport A2s that I bought from Tirerack. I am not thrilled with the tread life. It is time to replace them. The fronts especially are worn out. I have somewhat of a lead foot and drive around town a lot. I love the way the car rides and handles on the highway, but only go to Columbus 2-3 times a year. (roughly 344 mi. round trip) I keep the same tires year round until they are worn out. It snows here. I am between Cleveland and Pittsburgh. What do you recommend? I was considering the 2 below. Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S Goodyear Assurance TripleTred I'm sure they aren't in the same league, but I would love the look of the Goodyear NASCARS. Thanks Jim
#1313 of 1335 Summer tire for a few days of light snow by wai Nov 21, 2005 (6:56 am)
I try to choose a high performance summer tire which will has a slight snow traction (which sounds idiot), mine is FWD with 225/45/17. Bridgestone S03, Michelin Pilot Sport or PS2, Goodyear F1 GSD3, Dunlop Sport SP9000. Any thought?

Replying to: ajcstr (Nov 16, 2005 4:59 pm) As a followup question how would the ride comfort/noise compare between the Bridgestone G009 and the Yoko Avid H4S ? Also would the Bridgestone offer better wet weather traction?
