I wish I were at work now as the site was temporarily down while I wrote some additional information.

I went to the tirerack propeganda site and looked at Max Performance tires.

The bottom line was Goodyear doesn't bother to make one that fits the Contour, unless you go to Bling Bling 18" wheels, or if you try to stuff a 235MM wide tire under the wheel arches.

So the bottom line is, even if Goodyear did make the best tire, they don't bother making one for the Contour.

I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader to see how the Goodyears rank against something like the S03 Pole Position.
