Not sure how many miles you have on the Continentals but when they are spent go with the some Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Positions, great deal at TR. I know these cars have a ton of torque (590lb/ft mine with PP) but barely 7000 usable miles for rears is a joke.
Thats with zero burnouts. Will not go with Continentals again!

Mine have 5000 on them and I scratch my head feeling how close to bald they feel?!? Not long after taking ownership of the car after noticing the wear on the tires I actually pondered whether they put used tires on there. Early to mid June and I suspect these conti's will be toast, high speed heavy turning hard breaking daily driver but no burnouts! 126 highway miles per day.
the wear on my Michelin pilot sport a /s all-weathers which have around 6000 on them is surprisingly newish.......
I'll probably look at the pilot exalto pe2's if they size up.
