I have 225 R-18's Sports Contacts fitted to my A3 TDi 170ps (fwd).
In the damp from a standing start they spin like buggery and seem to offfer little grip. On the move in damp conditions they are fine, nothing special. In dry conditions I find them to really excel.
BUT ........... having done just under 9k in my car; which is mostly motorway miles; I have less than 1mm before the wear markers on the front!!! It seems they do wear quickly and others have said that a set lasting 10k is quite normal.
