New Shoes for the GXP

Since I didn't like options for available matched sets for the original size tires on the GXPs, I opted to upgrade to 235/50-18s in the rear. (Thanks to all those who posted on this forum who indicated that these will work) This REALLY increases tire options. I searched lots of websites, (TireRack is a GREAT resource), read lots of reviews and finally settled on these:

Continental USA Car / Light Truck / SUV -ExtremeContact&#153 DWS

they were ranked #1 in their category and I like the tread and features. I just ordered a set and should be in early next week...thank goodness too...I can't go anywhere in the snow with the worn-out Bridgestone 760s up front!

Has anyone had any experience with these?
 


and what year is the vehicle? I have a 97 2 door 3.1 liter 6cyl w/137k mles. Love the car but it needs struts on back and I would like to do new springs as well.
 
I really want to take out the sag I see on every W style body GP I look at, and here in WIS there are a million of them still on the road. Would like to raise car maybe 1.5" in back 1" in front...
