Tires for Street

Hi guys looking to replace my rear tires in spring on the 13 Boss 302 I just got. It has Bridestone Portenza tires on the rear right now, but I am leaning towards the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S or the Continental ExtraContact Sport 02.

Looking for opinions on them I did have the Michelins on my last Mustang and really liked them, but have heard some good reports on the Continentals.

I have the Michelins and love them and this is my second set. The Pirelli's that came as standard equipment sucked after 5k.

I have the Previous version Continental Extreme Sports on mine and pushed them a little in the corners. A real good handling tire.

If you still haven't bought a set, you can't go wrong either way although I lean towards the Michelins. They were just incredible on my old '07 GT/CS..
I was going to get them again for my '14 GT but wanted to try the ultra 'top of the line' Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate. So far they are every equal to the Michelin. Made in USA too just like the Michelins. A win, win either way.
