Hi, I'm using Continental ComfortContact-1 195/55/15, they're like RM170 each end of last year. I exchanged my stock Goodyear NCT5 185/55/15 for them after hearing a lot of owners complaint about noise and grip. I don't whack corners (what on earth for?) and I don't go fast on wet roads (max 80km/h). My priority is a quiet and comfortable ride, and I feel they deliver exactly that. Initially had wanted Michellin XM1 or MXV8 (heard a lot of compliments about their silence and comfort), but they're >RM200 each and the shop owner recommended CC1 for quietness (yes I checked the manufacturing date, they're new), so I took 'em.

Will I buy them again? Yes, but I would prefer to try out other tyres first. My next change would probably be Silverstone Kruizer NS700 (supposedly comfortable; cheap too), Silverstone Synergy M5 (supposedly less rolling resistance and will save fuel; cheap too), Michellin MXV8 (newer than XM1; expensive), or the Bridgestone GR80 (comfortable; no idea about price).

Does it seem like it will eject water directly at the undercarriage?
