+1 on the Continental Extreme Contact DW. I liked the OEM Pilot Sports but wanted to save a little money to spend elsewhere on the car. I have over 2000 miles on them so far and they have been great. I sure don't feel like I lost any performance.

using those hankook tires now. no problems thus far, but saved essentially half the price of the other recommended ones.

I know this isn't exactly the tire that you asked about, BUT, on Saturday I ran a brand new set of Hankook RS-3's at the track and I thought they were fantastic after the first session.
They never got greasy as the sessions went on and never broke loose unexpectedly.
They're too good to waste on street driving.

I've got Michelin AS's for street tires but when they go, I'm putting Hankook's on for the street.

They are excellent tires. Stick like glue, great in the wet. I've got 15k on mine, the rears will go another 15k, fronts 20k. Daily driver, no snow/frozen precip.
They are rocks under 40F, most highperf summer tires are.

My Yoko S.Drive's are nearly shot, and after reading some glowing reviews, I'm in for a set of these. This Sunday's AX will be the end of the line for my Yokohamas.
