Well it was time to upgrade the tires on my car. The wheels that I have are from ASTRA SRi. 18x7.5, and OFFSET is 37mm.
OEM Tires were Dunlop Sport SP01 225/40-18 (OLD TIRES)
NEW Tires are Continental ContiExtremeContact. 245/40-18 (NEW TIRES)
Total cost was just under 700$ USD
First impressions are that they are much more quiet then the Dunlops and also more grippy.
And Pictures from the Installation...
And yes even tire rack can scratch wheels, they scratched mine, and denied it. Luckily it was small enough scratch that can be fixed by buffing.
And here are the comparison pictures between the two tires. Old ones on the left, New ones are on the right.
And here is how they look on the car...
