SportContact 3 is a perfect tire for daily use but also sporty driving around local mountains. Its very soft and sticky. The only probem i see is the durabilty, which is not so good. Ive destroyed it in about 15000 km.

Comment:
Compared to the factory installed Bridgestone’s Potenza 050A (11.000 Km), the Contis SC 3 are a much more well balanced tyre, with better road information, much more driving comfort (where the potenzas suffer a lot been very very stiff), much less cabin noise (where the potenzas are maybe the loudest tyre in the world), very good in dry conditions (an aspect where potenzas were a little bit better), very good in the wet (slightly superior to the potenzas) if you don't push the car in extremes.
