Continental Sports Contact

Hi All,

Had them for over 2 weeks now...but just though I might write a report about them...Yes they are smoother than the Factory Dunlop Sports S9000's and they give more steering on sharp turns...instead of doing 40kmh around a 90 degree corner, I can now do around 45kmh until a hear a wheel spin...so definitly smoother, better turning...that is comparing to a set of new Dunlop S9000's not the one I was running on right before the change...so I'll say its a fair comparision...lolz...

Hi Matt:

Did u have CSC fitted or CSC II fitted?

Are they more expensive than SP9000?

Are they made in Germany or South Africa.

Lots of C-Class come standard with CSC and they are made in South-Africa.

but I have seen some 3 series coupe' with CSC in 225/45/17 size, but they are made in Germany.

How about wet performance?

Most of the C-Class that they sell in Asia are mode in South Africa, that's probably also the reason why the Contis are made in South Africa.

Yeah I got CSC not CSC II, if I got II i wont even compare since its in a different class...I would compare with Pzeros...

Anyway yeah they are around 20% more expensive than the Dunlop S9000...yeah like I said less noise and better steering...can feel the difference...they are made in Germany...

Matt :D

matt, did they find the wheel alignment incorrect?

or do you just have a Lexus that chops the front tyres out all by itself...?

how long before the Continentals go bald on the inside edge?:(

not sure, I went back into Lexus and they did a wheel alignment...they said everything is fine, look alright at the moment, only donce around 2000k's on them...any idea how I can solve this or is it just that Mag and Turbo did a *BLEEP* job?

Matt :)
