i have been serching for a better tyre than the continental conti sport contact 5 225/45 r19 fr
this tyre to as E for econamy fuel and brill A in wet conditions and a bad 71 DB noisewise

in my serches i found dunlop sport maxx rt 225x45 r19 MFS-RT/225-34-R10-92-W-MFS.HTML

The spec C for econamy fuel and brill A in wet conditions and only 67 DB (decibels noise) the MFS means there is a protector on the side wall to protect the expensive tecna alloy wheels another tyre i eas looking at is hancook some people say other tyres cheap are good but for me my next ones will be the quiet dunlop summer tyres although i am in spain the north at xmas can be cold and wet before changeing a make of tyres i think its best to see the statistics first eh?

I'd place some form of priority on those ratings and performance in the wet would be tops. From what I've seen, the rating of fuel economy hasn't got much between them so I ignore that and as for noise I'd probably place that for as a 2nd priority (although the type of road surface can make the quietest tyre noisy)

brianthelian, our German QQ was delivered in 08/14 with these Dunlop Tyres as Std. and personally I have never had a Problem yet with them whether Rain, Cornering, Braking, Quietness etc, but everybody has a mind of their own and your opinion might be completely different.

Try using the "Search" Facility as there was a lot of discussions in 2014 on this subject of Tyres. For Instance see this attachment and just a comment on tyres it might help you - Hopefully Dave ;)
