Re: 19"summer high performance tires
I replaced my Pirellis with Continental Extreme Contact DWs. After 2 months, so far so good. Quieter than the Pirellis and less tracking in road grooves.

Re: 19"summer high performance tires
I was looking at hankooks but hear they are soso. Have Nokia winters which are incredible so curious if anyone has heard of good feedback on their summer product? I have to replace my summer set after about 32k of spirited driving including track. Was running stock PZeros. Great performance just abit loud and quick to wear. Thoughts?

My dad has Vredsein Ultrac Sessanta on his Jag XF. They are very nice.

Re: 19"summer high performance tires
bought some conti's DW 19's and very happy about it / had some hankook ventus v-12 and they we're ok for the price but noisy after 10,000km i agree with stasis s4 the best place to buy tire is at discount tire direct!

Re: 19"summer high performance tires
I've been a big fan of my Bridgestone Re760 sports. I've tracked em and they were fine, but also good in wet weather and tire wear has been very good. I talked with Luke at Tire Rack for a while before purchasing tires and he recommended these as Max Performance summer tires (one step town from the top performers) because I didn't want the tire wear of something like a Star Spec or an Re11.

Re: 19"summer high performance tires
I looked at DWS continentals but found its a all season tire. After doing a lot of research, I found the Michelin pilot super sport is a great Summer performance tire.
Reviews have been very positive and better tread life than the P zero.

Just got my Super Sports a week ago and loving them so far. Huge improvement over the Ventus V12's I was running before. Quiet, comfortable and sticks to the road. Tread life has yet to be seen. Michelin does have a good warranty, but I believe warranty mileage is halved if you a staggered fitment, as it is in my case.
