Hi Mike, interesting obs.
I find the Contis to be way, way better in all respects than the Bridgestone RFT's. The wet weather grip is night and day better, especially combined with my Quaiffe diff.
Much more compliant on the road too.
Cheers
Yves

Can't say I've noticed any droning, although I'd say the tyre noise is much the same as my Bridgestone runflats.
I'm running 37 front 39 rear and the ride feels about the same as the RFT's to be honest.
I may drop the pressures a bit - so far I haven't experienced the "Wow! This is way better than RFT's!" effect that others seem so excited about.
I did notice the £838 cost for 4 tyres though! Perhaps I should have gone for the £500 Falkens? Ah well, no-one said a 335 would be cheap to run.
Mike.
