Are they any good ?  
Continental TOURING CONTACT AS - P235/50R17 95S BSW  
was looking at these at Sears

Sams Club wants 160 per tire + mounting for the cheapest BFG Goodyear EAGLE GT Tire - 235/50ZR17 96W SL BSW

also im not hitting the race track anymore so i dont really care about handeling or the best traction. Just something to put around in

Continentals are overpriced junk. They are OEM to luxury mfg and make money by dealers putting them on as replacements. Never seen a tire test where they excelled vs any competition. Look elsewhere. Tirerack should have a good selection.
