Default Got my refund from Atlantis Tire and no neg feedback...picked up contisport contact 2s

my sister had the conti's off her 04 a4 avant sport package with only 1000 miles before she put all-seasons on it. just mounted them today and i'm pretty happy thus far. 235/45/17 gives perfect rim protection on an 8" wheel.

so far they're less grippy than my worn out Pzeros but maybe she didn't even break them in. Treadwear is 280 though...

Default nope. oddly enough when i called him to see if he got them he was nice

honestly i wouldn't avoid them altogether, but next time i'll take the 45 min drive down to them and just buy a set there if need be.

i failed a paypal claim and i knew i'd win because he had the tires and the money.

Default emre, you don't know this guy's retarded policy and you're calling me a dunce...

i won the auction for $26 and shipping was $85. He said i'd have to pay the full price even if I picked them up and he said i had to pay in advance. What's the point of driving down there when Fedex can do it for me?

speaking of forum dunce...i forgot who it was that said our cars have different weight pistons.

Default They are a good tire

Pretty grippy when tread is good. We had them on the wife's 530i sport. When they wear they are very noisy though. We replaced them with PZero Neros. Very happy so far. Glad you were refunded without problems.
