The Hankooks were somewhere between 750-850 for all four installed im going with the Pilot Super Sports next I think because that 90 and 82 difference seems big I guess it really depends on the cost. If they are only gonna run me 100-150 more for the set its probably worth it.

Robertrios - are you running staggered? I just lowered with Tanabe springs and am looking for new wheels and tires. The conti's are not directional so you can still swap from side to side vs no rotation at all. Most of the other seasonal tires seem to be directional so no rotation with a staggered setup.

I recently spoke with a member of Tire Rack's sales staff. Apparently, the Continental Extreme Contact DWS is being closed out by the manufacturer (at least in the SC430's stock size of 245/40-18). I wonder what happens when you need to replace just one tire because of a blow out from a pot hole?

Buy it now before you need it?
And if you don't use it think of it as insurance.
