I'm looking at these and the Perelli's M&S for replacements.

Here's the link from tirerack.com

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....ExtremeContact



Looking at going with 225/40/18.

Just looking to see if anyone has any experience with them and yes I know that they are an ultra high performance tire instead of a max summer tire.

are they M+S rated? I was looking at some conti's that were rated fairly well, and they were M+s but got the FZ4 instead.

Look up the Falken Ziex ZE-512s... that is what I am rollin' on!

M&S rated, and stick just about as good as my Pirelli's did! And I am running 225/40/18s

I'm actually looking at the Falken 329's since I can get a deal on them. A guy I know works at a tire shop and he's going to hook it up. They are supposedly replacing the 512's.

Yeah, I looked at all the other Conti's and the only ones that rate good are the Extreme contact and like 2 others that are at the top of their catagory.
