245/50 17 Tyre Review Highlights

Continental PureContact LS rated 44% while driving a Acura 3.2 TL
Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 easy going miles
Absolutely the loudest tires I have ever owned. Constant hum at any speed and especially bad at highway speeds. Drives me crazy listening to the noise

Continental ExtremeContact DWS rated 86% while driving a Mercedes Benz w211 e500
Driving on mostly town for 30000 easy going miles
On a Mercedes EClass e500, these tyres are amazing. Have already done 50,000kms and I reckon less than 50% wear. OEM Spec is 245/45, but the extra 5% fills the guards better and gives a far more compliant and smooth ride. No rubbing on guards or anything.
I might be the only person in the world who fitted this size to an eclass, but very very happy, a quiet sure footed ride.

Driving on mostly motorways for 2 average miles
this is a great tire im so impressed did not expect this level of performance at 80 90 100 mph there is no wobble just a smooth stable ride tires are very quiet, better than my michelin mx4 that came on the car and better than the toyo versados that i repleced the originals with i have never heared of a 30 day ride guarantee before but these will not be going back very very good in the raiin no hydroplaining this is the only tire i will buy now and the price much much cheaper than the michelins and versados. i was skeptical at first but im a true beleiver i waill put the falkens azenis pt722 up against anything out there regardless of price thanks faken this tire is a winner.
