Have a set of Continentals and a second set of Michelin Super Sports for mine............ both non run flats, and would recommend either one of them in the proper size for your car.............

The BFGs are one of the most highly talked about tire I've probably ever seen. Hundreds of people running them on the Camaro forum with great things to say. Can't speak about continentals.
Now if you're looking for a lot of performance for tracking or high HP then neither of these are good options.

I had those Continentals on my Mustang. I felt like they were a little squirmy on turn in, but decent grip, not too bad in the rain either if that matters to you. It's all about what you're trying to accomplish. I hated the Hankooks but a lot of people here seem to get really offended if you speak ill of them. I've always had great luck with BFGs.

Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position rank among the best (second to Michelin in some tests), look good and are reasonably priced.

I put the BFG Sport Comp II (not the AS version) on mine and love them. So far after 5,000 miles they are wearing great and handle/ride so much better than the stock Goodyears. They are a great value (had mine installed for $875 OTD) and would definitely buy them again.

Early last month I talked my fiancé into the Continentals for her BMW, wow what a tire! It's a '10 with 74k and it felt like a totally different car (as in new) they are quiet, responsive and so far wearing nicely with a few thousand miles on them. If they wear well over time I will be putting a set on my dd when the time comes.

We've established you don't read before you post. I'll be nicer if you'll be smarter, so go ahead and troll me, bro.....
