Anyone using ContiSportContact 5P....

My Bridgestone RE050A are down to the bar both front and back and it is time for new tires before Spring hits. This is my second set of Bridgestone but no more because of the fast wear on the tires. General consensus here is the Michelin PSS is the tire to beat but what about the ContiSportContac 5P? I don't track my car and do enjoy occasional spirited driving. Where I live frequent rain and cold morning is the norm. I have always have N-Spec tires for my C4S but I am planning to try to something different this time. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

I love them...

I have them mounted on HREs on my 997.1 S and they have been excellent. I run the 305s on the rear. I cannot attest to rain or wet conditions, but they have been super in all spirited driving conditions.

I just want to know all my options before I commit. I had ContiSportContact on my previous car 2006 Mercedes E55 and I liked it but that was an older model. I am curious to hear other's experience.
