Having tried a variety of tyres on my MG B someone suggested these continentals. Transformed the car totally, especially in the wet. The car used to understeer badly in the wed and then convert to oversteer. I always got the impression that the front wheels never gripped in the wet at all - the continentals changed that and gave me the feel back to prevent the oversteer. Good in the dry - hardly ever squealed, even when fully loaded up. The only drawback came from hitting a patch of standing water at 75 mph where the car aquaplaning really badly and spun off the dual carriageway. Not sure how much to blame the tyres here..... If I had another MG B I would continue to put these tyres on it; not sure if they're suitable for my alfa spider.

I'm quite a fan of these tyres, while they do not feature a super sticky compound they soak up bumps exceedingly well and I would go as far to say that they are the most comfortable tyre I’ve had on my car. The sidewalls are very soft and fold under hard cornering, but Continental have not sacrificed straight line grip; instead the tread pattern is made up of a very good compound and there is plenty of straight line grip.

A comfortable but safe tyre, you don’t see that very often.

I bought these as a standard replacement tyre for my heavy road car, they endowed it with a suprising amount of grip in both wet and dry conditions, they were very progressive and were much quieter than my previous michelins. Wear was higher than expected and as such would put me off buying another set, but I guess thats the price for performance, which I wasnt fussed about on this car, wear rates are more important!
