Michelin PSS.....how many miles?

Justice97 · 10-26-2013, 05:37 PM

Ok so far I have driven about 5 miles on the Continental Extreme Contact DWSs. I must say they are really quiet compared to the Potenza RE050A and a lot smoother ride. You can definitely feel the loss of performance though. For a DD and someone who is not looking for performance I like them and would recommend them so far. I still need to take them for sound tests on the highway, but so far you can definitely hear the difference.

I do have one Potenza that has at least half life left on it for someone in the SA area who might need one. It is a 275/35 R19.

Very happy with my decision on the Continentals.

They're going to be slippery for the first few hundred miles. You've got to burn the mold release off of them. Most likely they'll be grippier as you break them in.
