shopping for new tyres

[skny]

hi there, been searching all the local web based tire sellers and found out that there's a Conti Sport Contact 5 i 215/45/17 available.... tempted to get a set as I have no summer tires at all now finishing my first set of winter tires at the moment, they go into the trash after the winter as well, are they CSC5 rated higher than CSC3 or PE2 ?

The sport contact 5 is meant to be a fairly good improvement on the 3, it's inline with the pilot sport 3.

However, when I looked they weren't available in the clio size, only in 225 width and 18" rim IIRC. Where have you found them?

the PS3 is for 225 45 17 and above

available on mytyres.co.uk for 114.80

found it on a polish site of the same company first, it may be a new tire, as it doesnt say 5P but Conti sportcontact 5

Mmmmmm very tempting. I was going to go for the PS3 in 225/45/17 but getting these in the correct size might be a better idea

Thanks for the link
