Any of you guys running Continental Premium Contact tyres?

If so would appreciate any feedback.

I have Eco Contacts on all four corners of my E39 and they seem o.k.

I will fit Premium Contacts next time though I think.  The Mrs has them on her Escort and they give good grip but she wears them out really quickly cos of her driving style!

Go to this web site and type in what size you want then view each tyres test report and that will give you an idea what the Premium Contacts are like compared to other makes.

I think Continental are changing all their styles as my Eco Contacts were difficult to source as they were running down their stocks.  The Premium Contacts may be being replaced with Premium Contact 2 tyres.

Thanks. I am probably looking to get my tyres from there.
