any pics of them on your car?

[DanFromTucson]

I'm interested and semi-local. I'd love to see picks on the car.

Also, do they have the later style tpms installed?

[JackieChiles]

Yes they do, the tpms are for 2011.5+, and are only 9 months old

I'll dig for some pics and post as soon as I can

How did you like the conties? They are one of the most affordable options on the car for OEM replacement and by far the best rating. Just want to know from someone that's driven on them..

Honestly, anything bad to say about them?

Nice set up, free bump!

pics to be posted up in a sec, although I don't have much

The contis are very good. HOWEVER, I purposely ran OEM sizes with wider wheels. They are not as stiff as RFT (no tire is), so in order to maintain the firm steering feel and lack of body roll the OEM car has, you need to help the tire out. The way to do this is to run a wider wheel on a given size tire. The sidewall support from the wheel adds firmness to steering and minimizes body roll.

So what you end up with is a much lighter setup that makes for better throttle response, specifically from a stop, and much quicker steering response and better turn in

The ride comfort and damping over bumps is a totally new world. No comparison to the heavy RFT tires

looks like many of these marks can actually be buffed out. some are legitimate scratches though.
