Conti their tire supplier. They told me anything with a non-Conti tire is what the car came with from the factory but once those tires go, it's Conti. The funny part is that Michelin is right up the street and right next to the Marriott they put you up in. They told me they went to bid for tire suppliers and Conti won. They said occasionally the Michelin proving ground is booked and Michelin has to host events at the BMW Center. They have to change all the tires on any cars they use to Michelin and take down all the Conti signs etc. for the day and then change it all back when the event it over. Ha.
