I wouldn't call it obsessed, but

I do have quite a few Conti tires....25 I believe. I just love the grip of their rubber compound. I've got Comp 1's, Comp 2's, Leader Pros, Cross Country Pros in 1.9 and 1.5, Twister Pros, and Grand Prixs all in natural sidewall.

Try the Conti Double Fighter kevlars if you are looking for a semi-slick. They are great, comparable to the older Wildgripper Sprints and Jet S.

I didn't count duplicates. I have no idea exactly the number of conti tires I have. I know I have at least 2 of every style and in most sizes. I keep them folded in crates in my workshop. I'll have to find time to go through them again and count. You really cant have too many tires.
