I am happy to report that they fit perfectly and ride great. I was worried about increased road noise with the winter tire tread but that is NOT the case and are no more or less noisy than the Michelin Pilot Sports they replaced.
Just put my 18" 225 Contis all around too. Surprised that it isn't louder than the 19" 255 Pilots in the back. I guess it's because the 225 Contis aren't that wide.

BTW, I used a tire tread depth gauge on my Pilot Sports and all are wearing very nicely and evenly, I have 8/32" tread left on each of them across the asymmetric tread of the tire. Essentially brand new tread after 15K+ miles on the car. I am happy with them.
Me too ... checked mines briefly. Looks like they're gonna survive the next season and probably the following as well.
