Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Wheels & Tires Yet another search for tires - options inside. Luke, any experience w/ the RE950?

JVT,

Recieved the 950's for my wifes 626 last night.....

She originally had some Potenza RE92's if I read the sidewall right they still have 85% tread on them but Hydroed and couldn't bite worth a poop.

I can tell i Like the 950's a lot better.
Even after the initial mounting and balancing, and the silcon "coating" on the wheel the gripped a hell of a lot better.

I took it on HWY 5 which has some nice Twisties....Well with the 92's the "@ss" would swing out (yes on a FWD vehicle) pretty hard.

With the 950's did a hell of a lot better at 10mph more then what i normally would take that turn at in her car.

The tread design looks pretty modern and nice. and HAD a REALLY quiet ride.
of course, I am deaf and don't think the KDW's are "that" loud.

Hope this helps with your search.
Over all I would reccommend them,
If i get Rims for my car, I am Really considering these if I can never get the S3's

my 2 cents
