I use these on my Nissan Z32 twin turbo (paired 285-35-18) in rear. Great tires. I hope Conti never stops making them. I am particularly impressed with low road noise. Dry handling is second to none, as far as I am concerned. Wet handling is very good - but can be better. Money for value is as good as it gets, period.
