Default Gary, Which would you reccommend?

Gary,
I need to replace my tires. 235-45-17's.
which would you go with, the Continental ContiExtremeContact or the Yokohama AVID W4S?
If you favor a different one I will listen.
Thank you,
Mike,

The Extreme Contact will have a bit better dry grip and faster steering response. The aggressive tread pattern might do a bit better in snow, but may get louder as it wears. The Avid W4S should be smoother and quieter with a bit longer wear. Both are good tires in their respective categories.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&amp;url=/tires/index.jsp">Tires</a></li></ul>
