The Advans lasted 18.5K, but were starting to hydroplane. The Continentals have a treadwear rating of 540 and are asymmetrical / bidirectional. So I'll be able to swap tires left-to-right every 5K to balance out the wear.

Can you please post pics of your wheels after you get the tires installed? I'm interested in seeing how those size tires will look with the base 18" rims. Thanks
