need rear tires - continental extreme contact?

Need some new rear tires

Michelin Pilots are pretty spendy so I was exploring other options
Ive been recommended the Continental Extreme Contacts (in 245/45R18)

What do you guys think?

There is a reason why continentals have the nickname "conti-crap". BMW owners now what I'm talking about, since a lot of BMW's come standard with these tires. I would go with Nitto's, if you need to save the money.
