Still waiting for my OEM tires to need replacement. I ran winter tires for 4 months so I figure I have about 12,000 miles on the Bridgestone P-S001's that came with the car and will probably replace them around the time I swap back to the winters. I ran the Pilot Sports on my S4 and loved them. Unbelievably quiet, very responsive, and also seemed to be more resistant to sidewall damage from our pothole filled roads.

The Contact 6s are stock now? I try to keep an updated thread on the stock tires, and they used to be the 5P Summer.
