The new ContiSportContact 5 - Control never has been sportier

Unlimited driving fun thanks to excellent grip.
With the launch of the ContiSportContact™ 5, Continental has developed a tyre which is equally suitable for sporty cars + SUVs with sporty driving characteristics. With this new development, the tyre engineers have made significant progress in camparison to the popular predecessor ContiSportContact™ 3: Shorter braking distances in all weather conditions.

Excellent road grip and safety when cornering. 
Reduced fuel consumption and high mileage. This was made possible due to a new compound which focuses on maximum power transmission and provides low rolling resistance whilst driving normally. This rubber compound which carries the name 'BlackChilli' uses the various vibrations of the tyre.

For high-performance and luxury vehicles. The performance tyre, with outstanding handling and control.
Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety. With our Black Chilli Technology you have excellent road grip and handling just as safety when cornering. Highly recommended by Auto Bild in their summer tyre test 2014 (sizes tested: 225/50 R 17 W/Y).

Highlights:

• Safety shorter stopping distance
• Performance excellent
• Handling
• High mileage potential
• Environment fuel efficient

Excellent road grip and handling just as safety when cornering. The macro-block design of the tyre’s outside shoulder provides a larger contact area, which can therefore adapt optimally to the road surface. The ContiSportContact™ 5 offers improved road grip and thus more safety when cornering.

Shorter braking distances in all weather conditions. When braking, the tyre has a high natural frequency within the compound. Short-chain polymers in the Black Chilli compound of the ContiSportContact™ 5 react to this braking frequency and thus provide optimal energy absorption. The resulting heat shortens the braking distance on wet and dry roads.

Reduced fuel consumption and high mileage. At a constant speed, the vibrations in the compound are significantly lower. The long-chain polymers within the compound can release the absorbed energy better, resulting in considerably reduced rolling resistance. Thus, the tyre runs more easily and remains cool – for a higher mileage and a reduced fuel consumption.

Michelin Primacy 3

Advantages:

• Excellent on wet braking
• Good performance on dry bracking
• Foolproof security

New Tread Pattern MICHELIN Primacy 3 keeps the entire tread block surface area of the tyre in contact with the road due to a new patented tread design with auto-blocking sipes. New Patented Compound The new patented MICHELIN Primacy 3 compound, with its special tread pattern, optimises grip on wet and dry road surfaces to provide shorter braking distances.

Center sub grooves with shallower depth enhance vertical/lateral block stiffness to avert block deformation and further reduce energy consumption. Shoulder groove bottom with big angle design retains shoulder block continuity, weakens block wrilggling, and reduces energy consumption.

Two section lateral groove design on shoulder profile prevents uneven tread wear and provides adequate traction. Four circumferential groove design enhances drainage performance and safety for wet road driving.

Center rib design reinforces straight driving and handling performance. Circumferential rib design on tread shoulder,with thin sipes instead of run-through lateral grooves,prevents groove resonance and reduce noise generated by run-through lateral grooves.

Adopting excellent dispersible silica and unique agents reduces rooling resistance substantially as well as enhances wet gripUsing unique synthetical rubber with 'Chain-End Modification' strengthens fuel saving and traction. Ha-oil-free formula for all sizes conforms with EU environmental protection laws.
