Need new tires...

[Kladuscan]

With winter just around the corner, I will be needing new tires...but figured I might as well get some new wheels for the summer. So what I'm currenty looking at is...

Tires:Continental ExtremeContact DWS size:225/45ZR18

Wheels:Enkei Tuning Fujin size:18x8 offfset:50

So...what do you guys think? Anyone here got either one of these? If so, what are you impressions? I know I'll need a fender lip roll..no biggy.

Trying to find pics of the wheels on an MS6..with no luck. If you find some, please share! Thx(pow)

My mechanic who does many track days just basically told me he has never noticed a difference with tires unless it is the different between Worn and Brand new. He was telling me its definitely better to get cheaper tires and change them more often and that Continental was a good call because they don't make anything too cheap or anything too expensive and they are always good quality. So looks good.

I will have to disagree with the guy on top... I've had a few different sets on my car on and off the track and there is plenty of difference in handing, grip, wet/dry conditions, noise, and wear. I normally go for Kumho, Nitto, or Yokos, depending on the requirements and hookups.
