Hankook Kinergy PT H737 Continental Pure Contact LS 245/50R18 for 2016 Camaro

My 2016 Camaro takes 245/50R18 tires and I’m looking for tires that last me multiple years of driving 20-30k miles a year. The one thing I care about most if the tires staying quiet throughout their lifetime. My last tires were the Turanza Serenity Plus which are supposed to be quiet, and I found them to much louder than I would have liked.

I’m trying to decide between these two tires

Hankook Kinergy PT H737 - 90k mile warranty, $879 including installation - $220 per tire

Continental Pure Contact LS - 70k mile warranty - $997 including installation - $250 per tire

Is the continental worth an extra $30 per tires, and if so, why?

I’m not finding much info on these tires online, but from what I see the continental should be quieter but may not last as long. Does anyone have any info on either of these tires or any comparisons?

I can't think of any one on this forum say much if anything about Hankook tires but Continental as a brand has an excellent rep.

Durability and life will be more influenced by alignment and rotation than the tire itself, just MHO.
