Tires S70 1998

EEEK!,

I have had Pirelli's on a couple of cars and I don't care for their high speed handling charactaristic's. They grip really really really solid up to a point and then bang its like someone pulled the rug out from under you traction wise as you slide across the road out of control.

One of my Favorite tires is the Continental Contact series. They come standard on lots of Mercedes and in general are a good riding good handling tire. Probably what I will end up putting on the car once the Michelens wear out.
