Bridgestone VS Continental 2023 C300 AMG

I just replaced the original BS with Conti - MAJOR upgrade! Significantly smoother and more comfortable. Slightly quieter. It feels as if handling and braking are about the same. Given that it has AMG suspension and run-flats, the Turanza LS100’s still delivered a harsh ride. The ProContact GX-SSR’s deliver a ride that is much more of a Mercedes ride. In looking at Tire Rack, they rated the Conti’s far higher. In addition, they seem to have a higher life and lower cost. I always am concerned about switching from the OE tire to another - even if it is an approved tire. This change is clear.

C300
My 2024 C300 (non-AMG) came with Continental SSR's. The car brakes incredibly well, corners and rides in a stable fashion, and the only issue I have (and it might not be the tires but insulation) is more road noise than I expected.
