Replace Dunlop RF with ContiSportContact 3 SSR
I have been running on the Dunlop runflats since I purchased the car in 2007. I really like the concept of the run flats, and don't mind the slightly harsher ride.
Instead of buying more Dunlops, I am looking at ContiSportContact 3 SSR. Any have feedback on these?

I just took off a set that came on the car from the factory. They are probably the quietest of any R/F that you can buy, but I switched to Continential DWS and the ride and noise are greatly improved. I'll never go back to R/F's again. I just carry a small compressor and some tire plugs if I get a flat.

I went to townfair tire here in MA, and the manager of the store would not allow me to buy the DWS for my daughter's Mercedes, unless I signed an agreement that their test drive policy is not available for those tires. He mentioned that before they started doing that, over 50% of all the DWS they sold, came back. Something about road noise and vibration. So I bought some
Potenza RE970AS Pole Positions. Totally changed the ride of the car.
