The new UltraContact. Longevity - developed in Germany.
Enjoy excellent mileage thanks to the new YellowChili mixture.
Rely on high resilience - thanks to the robust UltraShield construction.
Experience convincing performance in wet conditions and the comfort of low driving noise.
Our recipe for ultra-long driving fun.
We know that it is much more fun to see good tires in action on the asphalt than to have to look after new ones. That is why the UltraContact with its new YellowChili mixture and the adapted profile design enables you to have a safe and balanced driving experience with ultra-high mileage. The best thing to do is get used to not thinking about new tires for a very, very long time.
When the streets get rougher, he doesn't show anything.
Driving is most fun when you know that next to nothing can stop you. And it is precisely for this feeling that we have developed the new UltraContact. Its robust UltraShield construction offers excellent protection against everyday damage. We wish you a pleasant time on all kinds of road surfaces - whether rough and bumpy or freshly paved.
For safe performance on wet surfaces.
Enjoy every single moment on the road - even when it's raining. A large number of specially shaped lamellas enables the so-called wipe-out effect, whereby water is quickly drained to the outside and you benefit from a short braking distance. In addition, special noise breakers in the tire grooves significantly reduce driving noise. So that every journey is as pleasant and safe as possible for you.
EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes
The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.
Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tyre makes on the road.
The following are not affected by the EU Tyre Label: retreaded tyres, professional off-road tyres, racing tyres, tyres with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tyres, T-type emergency tyres, special tyres for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tyres with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tyres for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.
With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.
Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.
Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
