Hi Y'all,

Bin Lookin for replacement high (or ultra-high) performance summer 
tires for the better half's '07 Forester 2.5xt.  We're good for now 
and into the summer for a while but a set will be needed before too 
many more months of summer driving.  I've been quite impressed with 
the Bridgestone RE-11 tires I had on Ms. Piggy ('95.5 urS6 w/ RS2 
mods) last summer and going back on her next summer and would be 
happy to get a set of the same for the FXT.  Unfortunately, 
Bridgestone appears not to make the tire in the needed size (stock 
size which came on the car is 215/55-R17 - a wider tire with lower 
profile would be acceptable if similar rolling radius can work on the 
car).  Has anybody had experience with the ContiExtremeContact DW 
tires?  They are priced fairly decently and reviews sound good but 
how about any BTDTs?  How do they compare with the RE-11s?

Any other recommendations for a GOOD set of tires without just 
throwing money at the car?

Bob
