Good luck with the Contis. I spoke with them about the lack of tread at the edge and they say the tyre is designed like that on purpose! Ive binned mine and bought Hankooks and they are quieter with much better road holding in the wet. FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

Yep mine are looking worn on the edges after only 8k miles. I'll be keeping a close eye on them.

There have been a lot of issues with the Continental tyres on the Volvo Forums for the xc90 too. Saying that my RRS was on Pirellis and at 9000 odd miles they were pretty well unmarked. 2500 miles of that was towing the caravan too. Current, M135i in Estoril Blue with more extras than the cast of Ben Hur.
