WORSE tires in the world, compared to the Bridgestones. Harsh ride, noisy, and the handling suffered. I'll never put Continentals on a 997. I also think the Pirellis are a bit harsh, from my driving a 997S coupe with them.

You get what you pay for,--and you pay for what you get.
I just put the Bridgestone RE050A on in the place of the PS2's. I paid just under $500 less then the PS2's and got a tire that I can't tell the difference in ride, noise, or performance. I'm not looking back.

Great Info and I hope it keeps coming, even if I'm getting more confused (again).
