England 2010 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 XS CSW Rimini Red
My 110 came with Continentals when new, but for winters in France I swapped on steel rims with BFGs.
The biggest problem with the Continentals is that whilst they are not a directional tyre, they do wear directionally which means that if swapped from side to side (i.e. apparently different rotation) they sound as if the wheel bearings are shot. Putting the BFGs back on (either direction) prevented the noise.
Yes, they are cheaper than BFGs, but no, I will not buy new ones.
