Thx for the suggestion. I have already dedicated winters, so am looking for dedicated summers.

Thx again. I learned something new today(UTQG). I saw that the Contis are lighter (21/23 vs 22/25lbs), so am wondering if this would offset the perf deficit. Savings of $448 is very tempting....arrrgh.

Thx, I wish I had more time. I just want to get it done asap so unfortunately can't wait.
EDIT: oh, I only have 18s...do you guys recommend sticking w/ the OEM #s or go for something wider?
