Yup, Conti came out with a break away series. MC5 is Max Contact 5. Could be a budget series for those who cannot afford CSC Range like CSC5..... smile_wink.gif

just to close the loop.
i end up with evo v12.... i felt the ride is quieter than my old falken when driving on highways.
not sure if it is my mind that is persuading me to believe the new one is better, or if it is actually a quieter set of tyres...

The Eu Label information is available. The noise for this size is 71dB.
The V12 is very good and balanced UHP tyre.

Old worn tyre and new tyre can have difference in noise level. See whether the noise level goes up when the V12 starts to wear?
