We’ve said it before, and we'll say it again: the Max Performance Summer tire category is fiercely completive. The pressure is on for each manufacturer to craft a tire that can scream through corners, then settle down enough to run errands on the ride home.
In this test, we challenge two familiar products, the Bridgestone Potenza Sport and the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S, against the Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02. In a previous test, we found the ExtremeContact Sport 02 to surpass its predecessor on our test track. Now we see how it compares to two front-runners.
