Renault modified 4CV and modified R8 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Continental Eco Contact 3 given 88% (165-65-14-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 0 spirited miles
Each of my cars has 165/65-14 fronts & 185/60-14 rears & is rear-engined with swing axles. Wet braking, wet lateral grip (damp not deep puddles) & predictable & talkative limit behaviour are my priorities. The EC3s succeed well on those terms. I have no interest in how long they last or how comfortable they are & generally prefer softer, quick wearing, slick-road-competent, compounds. If they have a fault, then it's a fairly soggy structure. My cure for that is to run them with pressures in the mid thirties to gain the front end response I want & then adjust the rear to get the handling balance I like. Works nicely &, as their wet grip is better than anything much else I can get in the size in Australia, it's a small fault to compensate for. I'm a repeat customer although I've recently fitted Premium Contact 2s to the front of the 4CV (same comments as the above except crisper in turn in). Recommended.
