I recently replaced them with a set of Falken Ziex ZE-512, good price, very happy with them
yep, those are the contis im talking about. there is still quite alot of tread left but it was just slipping like shit. thanks with the recommendation with falkens, i am going to change them soon and consider those falkens you have as an option.
