Rapid Sport tyres - which ones?

[turboman6680]

Will be collecting my new Sport on Wednesday - what tyres will it have however?  Seen some with Dunlop Sp Sports and some with Conti Sport Contacts.

 

Would prefer the Conti's as my experiece of them is first rate however - what will be will be i guess!

The Continentals are nice.

I got Bridgestones on my Toledo 16"

I have OE Conti PremiumContact 2. 215/40R17. same as RapSport size.

They are quiet, grippy enough dry and wet for my easy going driving, and wearing well - no obvious signs of wear at all on the fronts with 10000 miles on them.

That's good to know. I have the Conti Premium contacts on mine, albeit 15"s. I used to get 18000 miles out of a set of fronts on the Civic but I remember back to the days of the Punto that it had 36000 miles on it when i sold it and still had the original fronts

Got Contis on my Sport. Great tyre

Mine came with Dunlops. I was disappointed as normally buy Continentals.

Dunlop Sport Maxx here; don't rate either it or the Premium Contact 2 which seems to be the other factory 17" tyre option (had the latter on other Skoda's).
