ContiTrac - Yeah or Nay?
Anyone with experience with ContiTrac? What do you think of them?
I'm contemplating trading-in my ContiTrac when I get my '03 Expedition for something with better on-road (braking and cornering) prowess since my driving is almost always on-road. Typically OE tires strive for good fuel economy and good ride comfort. I assume the ContiTrac is the same?
I want better traction on dry and wet (performance) like the Bridgestone Dueller H/P. I'm willing to trade treadwear life and off-road (winter) traction for better on-road tires.
Your comments would be appreciated. Thanks.

ContiTrac - Yeah or Nay?
I just put on a set of Conti SUV tires (that's the official name) and I must say, so far, I'm happy. This has only been about 1000 miles so far so this might not mean that much. They are a all-weather rib with a small bias towards hi-way driving. They seem to be very good in the rain, they have deep channels in them. I can't say how they are in the dirt or the snow cause I've yet to drive them in those conditions. I paid 100.00$ per wheel including mounting and balancing and rotation every 5,000 miles. I'm happy so far. I was going to get a set of Pirelli Scorpian AT's, but I really don't drive in the dirt or mud too much. The snow in NY isn't what it used to be either.
