? about continental contitouring tires

i might be picking up some 17" oem maxima rims with the continental contitouring cv95 225/50/17 tires on them. was just wanting to know if anyone knows about these and how long they should last, how quiet they are, and overall what you think. i have stock 15" wheels with hubcaps but just got new goodyear ultra ls tires on them about 2 months ago and dont want a set a cheapo tires.

those aren't cheapo tires. they are decent. i had them on my old wheels and i'd say continental makes decent tires.
definently not trash or anything to frown upon.

yeah i read the reviews just wanted to know some others opinions. also the wheels dont come with lugs and i was wondering if it would be ok to run the ones i had on my stock steelies just until i got some others. these are the ones with the conical end and not a flat end. i think it should be okay for a few days at least but if not let me know before i go and screw anything up.

hmm, from that description i dont know. i would say just make sure the wheel sits flat against the hub and examine it to make sure everything is sitting right.
im not sure what lug nuts came with the steelies but just use your best judgement.
