What owners say
<p>Wear and tear much faster than sportcontact 5</p>
The tires are good, but they wear so fast. I drove on them for one and a half summer and on wet I am allready feeling aquaplaning. That is too soon. I will never buy these tyres again.
Mercedes E400d 4matic saloon 2019:
Excellent handling in dry, predictable in the wet, wear acceptable, not the most comfortable over broken surfaces, noise OK for 2016-designed UHP tyre. Now surpassed by Michelin PS4S, Goodyear F1 Asymetric 6, Pirelli P Zero PZ5 etc.
Overall tire is pretty good for grip and driving but the extreme quick wear and tear is ridiculous. Tire has similar performance to Michelin PS4S (not quite as good though). I’ve put roughly 3200km on them with my AWD Polestar 2 Performance and they are down to barely 5MM of medium/mixed driving. The tires came with the vehicle and will probably need to be replaced at the end of this season. I’ve had the Michelin PS4S on my previous car before and they lasted 2 full summers of harder/sportier driving. I do not think these Continental are worth the money since they do not last.
Great performance tyre but worn out in 27,000 kms
