Default S4 Drivers with Sunglasses

Hi All,
Had a question for all of you S4 drivers that get blinded by the sun every day. I have to say, sometimes the sunshade don't cut it, and neither does the tint. And for all you S4 cabrio owners, you have nowhere to run, hehehe.

Can you guys recommend me a pair of sunglasses for everyday driving. I wear corrective contacts and in the morning my eyes burn quite a bit if they are exposed to the sun for a long while. Any suggestions?

Default Oakley Square Wire 2.0 Gold Iridium

I own about 20 pairs of these. Several polarized and several that are not. Best sunglasses i just beat them up pretty bad. Over the past 5 years I have had the spring loaded and non-spring loaded. If you go with them def. spend the extra couple bucks on the springs.

Default well....

My eyes are pretty sensative to light. And for a long time I taught tennis in the summer. Just doing that I could have 2 pairs or so for the courts and then at least one pair for driving. Now a days being in college I wear sunglesses all the time when I am outside. So I have just kinda collected them over time. I broke a couple pairs playing tennis, some were repaired and I keep them as spares. Some hit the trash. Right now i have a pair I keep on myself most of the time. A pair in the car and a pair in my tennis bag and a backup pair in my room. Granted the ones I keep on me are the newest ones, once they get beat up they will replace on of the other pairs and be replaced with a new pair to wear every day. Once you find something that works its hard to change.

Default Serengetis. Glass polarized lenses, metal spring-loaded frames.

Many styles. The 555nm polarized lenses are the ones to check out. Expensive, but worth it.
