I have only 9,000 miles on my EL-42s but the noise is starting to get on my nerves. I notice it particularly at around 35-40 mph on local roads. It sounds like a spaceship coming down for a landing. When I let a friend try out the car, he thought the brakes were grinding. I can feel as well as hear it.
Do the Contis take the sharp bumps and potholes any better? |

Absolutely. When I used to hit a bump or pothole with my factory EL42s, I would wonder if the car had a suspension. The Contis smooth everything out and make you feel in much better control of the car.

When did you start experiencing your problems? I have 5,000 + miles on my tires and they still handle and ride great. My car is a April 2007 build.
Thanks!
