Continental PremiumContact 2

Shorter braking distances for luxury and medium-sized cars

The ContiPremiumContact™ 2 has a totally new type of 3-D groove. Its innovative tread technology optimises braking performance on both wet and dry surfaces. Thanks to the new 3-D grooves, water is dispersed more efficiently - providing excellent protection against aquaplaning. 3-D grooves also give the whole tire superb stability. That's why the new ContiPremiumContact™2 is less prone to distortion, which vastly improves your car's manoeuvrability.

Technical details

The innovative 3-D-Groove: The distinctive feature of the new ContiPremiumContact™ 2 is its unique 3D tread grooves, which optimise braking performance on both wet and dry roads and achieve optimum protection against aquaplaning. Shallow side for better braking on dry roads, steep side for better braking on wet roads: The shallow side of the 3D groove gives greater tread block stability and improved road contact, which results in shorter braking distances on dry roads. Even when placed under great strain the tread blocks do not bend away and so the tire retains maximum contact with the road. This more even contact pressure ensures maximum transmission of power to the dry road. The steep side of the 3D groove makes the edge of the tread block extremely angular. This enables it to cut through the water on the road, much like a windscreen wiper.  The direct contact between the tire and road means exceptionally short braking distances, even in the wet.

Special shape of the 3D grooves for better resistance to aquaplaning: The special shape of the 3D grooves (shallow and steep sides) means that as the water flows through, a swirl effect is created. The water is thus dispersed more rapidly and the risk of aquaplaning reduced. The harmonious round shape of the ground contact patch also increases resistance to aquaplaning.

Improved handling thanks to asymmetrical tread pattern: The compact outer shoulder and the reduced number of tread blocks ensure optimum road contact and excellent cornering stability. The double block structure of the inner ribs ensures high circumferential tread stiffness, which results in improved driving stability and braking performance. The open inner shoulder with its continuous lateral grooves and an increased number of tread blocks reduces rolling noise and disperses water efficiently, giving a comfortable ride and excellent protection against aquaplaning.

For upmarket mid-sized and luxury vehicles. Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety. Outstanding braking performance in both wet and dry conditions. Trusted by leading car manufacturers, including the models eg. Audi A1/A6, BMW Series 3/5, Nissan Qashqai and VW Passat.

Michelin Alpin 5 – Outstanding security due to the innovative tehnology

A high level of safety is in focus: When developing the new MICHELIN Alpin 5, the objective was reaching a high level of safety under all winter.

Two core technologies for optimum winter performance

The new resdesignedtread pattern ensures special features:

The 'teeth effect', allows the tyre to 'bite' in the snow and so to better resist aquaplaning
The new premium tire has a directional tread, an arrow-shaped profile, as well as specially designed tread blocks with high negative proportion. This makes the tyre to press in the snow, causing a sort of 'teeth effect'. Thanks to the realignment of the side channels, the water is efficiently derived aside, reducing the risk of aquaplaning significantly.

Claw effect for more traction on snow
The slats act like thousands of tiny claws that snag on the ground and produce traction. This effect is all the more effective when the tire has a high number of slats. MICHELIN Alpin 5 has, compared to its predecessor in size 205/55 R16 over more that 12% tread pattern and 16% more slats. Also the tread's negative proportion is increased by 17%.

Contact surface effect for a better steering precision
The 'StabiliGrip' tehnology ensures a special tread which allows
higher steering precision. The larger the contact area on the ground, the better the grip.

Because the tyre deforms at each wheel rotation, the Michelin engineers have specifically designed the tread pattern so that the sipes in the tread block block themselves. Efect: the tread block remains stable despite its sipes, which ensures a high steering precision.

The new rubber compound also has excellent properties on dry and wet surfaces and on snow:

The high silica content in the rubber compound ensures better grip on dry and wet roads. For the first time in the production of a winter tyre, Michelin utilised the inovative 'Tread Compound Technology' and included functional elastomers (synthetic rubber) in the material compund.

These functional elastomers allow a very homogeneous rubber mixture with a higher silica content and thus provide better grip on wet and snowy roads, without compromising the energy efficiency of the tire.

In addition, the new rubber compound also includes Michelin's fourth generation of 'Helio Compound Technology'. Through the use of sunflower oil, the tyre performance is optimized even at very low temperatures.

Good all round! And value for money

For compact-class and middle-class vehicles. Performance, steering precision, long service life. Thanks to minimal wear you can be sure to go further – with regard to mileage as well as superb driving comfort. The Brillantis 2 provides the perfect combination of economy and long service life. Balanced driving characteristics and a precise steering response make this tire a good all-round solution.

The Brillantis 2 features:

• High mileage performance
• Greater safety
• Increased aquaplaning safety
• Short braking distances
• Fits perfectly for example to Skoda Citigo, VW Golf VII and Renault Mégane

Technical details:

• Flat contour, good ground pressure distribution
• High mileage performance forprolonged driving fun
• Pleasantly low rolling noise

High mileage.
The flat contour of the Brillantis 2 evenly distributes the ground pressure. This increases mileage.

Greater safety during critical steering manoeuvres.
The asymmetrical tread with a solid outer shoulder gives the tyre good transverse rigidity in the outer shoulder blocks. The result: greater safety for critical steering manoeuvres.

Greater protection against aquaplaning and shorter braking distances on wet roads.
Continuous lateral grooves on the inside and narrow grooves in the blocks allow water to flow away freely. This increases aquaplaning prevention and shortens the braking distances on wet roads.

Low rolling noise.
The reduced width of grooves in the shoulder area and a lower volume of transverse grooves make road noise pleasantly quiet.

NA-1 adopts uniquely asymmetric pattern design. The inside pattern stresses on drainage performance. Larger void ratio improves drainage performance on wet roads. The enlarged third section of tread radius lessen contact pressure of tread shoulder, and further reduce the noise generated from the lateral grooves on tread shoulder.

Light-weight profile and narrow tread width design reduce rolling resistance. The outside pattern emphasizes on maneuverability, The larger pattern blocks on tread shoulder offers better cornering handling. Noise prevention bar on the lateral grooves of outside tread shoulder block airflow in the grooves to reduce the derived noise. Chamfered groove wall design scarifies the water film for getting better wet grip.

Comfort and safety across the entire range
Developed for compact- and middle-class vehicles and SUVs.
Outstanding aquaplaning safety and ideal comfort.
Fits perfectly for example to Ford Fiesta, Renault Twingo and Alfa Romeo Mito.

High aquaplaning safety
The new RainExpert 3 has a tread structure based on the shark skin.
This special tread minimises water turbulence and channels water away from the tread more quickly.
This means the tyre provides a high level of protection against aquaplaning.

Short braking distances on wet and dry roads
The tyre tread grips the road surface perfectly, establishing strong contact.
This extra adhesion leads to short stopping distances on dry and wet roads.

Low rolling resistance on any road
With the RainExpert 3 the tread surface is used to optimum effect in contact with the road.
This leads to reduced loss of friction, resulting in lower rolling resistance on all road surfaces and reduced wear.
