Horrible Wear

I leased a 2016 Mercedes Benz C300 in Feb of 2017 that had these tires on it when i leased it . I have less than 18K miles on the car and i have to replace the tires. The tires have been rotated as per tire manufacturer specs and they still need to be replaced. I should not be changing tires on a car that has less than 20K miles.

Thank you for leaving a review of our tires. Although product use is excluded from the new vehicle tire warranty, we sent you an email offering assistance to you if the tires are evenly worn down to 2/32", with records of rotation every 6,000 miles. Unfortunately, we never received a reply. if you are still in need of assistance, we recommend replying to the email we sent to you on 2/12/2020.

impressive

We purchased a factory new 2008 Ford Fusion and these tires came with the car. Regular rotations and 70,000 miles later, they easily just passed inspection! Even this year alone, the car has taken us through snow storms in Arkansas and Texas and we never even though about the tires as they have always come through for us. The Texas rains and extreme heat have always been there to offer up torture and we just keep rolling along.

Very harsh ride and very noisy

We own 2 Jaguar X-types, a 2003 with 16-inch wheels and a 2004 with 17 inchers, both cars purchased new and equipped with ProContacts. I know little technical information about tires, so simply have had my Jaguar dealer replace them with the same Conti ProContacts when required. We have homes on Cape Cod and in Sarasota and so drive in a variety of conditions. (I drive to New Hampshire to ski, and of course we have summer conditions in Florida.) The tires are just unbelievably noisy, the car with 17-inch wheels being by far the worst. (I notice others on this site complain of noise.) Moreover, the ride on the 17-inchers is very, very harsh. Any small pothole -- and there are lots on Cape Cod roads -- means a severe, stomach-turning jolt. So much so that I am finally learning all I can about tires and I intend to replace these at the first opportunity. I also happen to be an enthusiastic road biker, and give Conti high marks for their bike tires. It is unfortunate that they do not do better on auto tires.

3rd Set on Car

My 07 GTI came with these tires as OE, 50K on first set, 55K on second set. The 3rd set will be mounted on Friday. I stuck with the Conti's because they have served me well and figure that changing to another less expensive tire may prove to be a bad decision. Only issue I have is that they aren't the greatest in the snow so I have a set of winter tires to help with that matter. In the rain these tires are fine, including when they are at the end of tread life. I had to make an emergency stop in the rain when the first set had 45K on them and I was shocked that they didn't brake free on the wet road and the anti-lock brakes didn't even kick in. My experience is that some tires work great on some cars but poorly on others. My other car a 2000 Audi A4 has the same tire and they wear somewhat quicker but still perform very well.

Best Tires I have owned

These tires came on my 2007 VW and have performed well. I feel that, at 59k miles, they still have sufficient tread left. I just took a trip east (Ohio, West Va, & Va) through the mountains and through a wooded camp site and my ContiProContacts did a great job. I will replace them this fall (2011) with the very same model/brand. They will have lasted just over 60m miles with good performance. The photo I am uploading is the tread depth after our trip through the mountains. This is probably good enough for fair weather, conservative driving but definitely need replaced before winter. I have never had a set of tires last this long and give this kind of well-rounded performance. J.L

I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS TIRE!

These tires are HORRIBLE!!! I have a 300 Mercedes Benz and the dealer in Pittsburgh pa Rahal is always telling me my tires need replaced every 50,000 miles, I've replaced these tires it seems like once a yr. Now I cant and will not stand in good ratings for these tires! I really think the manufacture and the dealers are in cahoots together!!!

Thank you for providing feedback about our tires. Please keep in mind that the tread wear warranty is 40,000 - 60,000 miles depending on the speed rating of your tires. If you are averaging 50,000 miles, this is in line with the product warranty. As for recommendations on replacement, the tires do not need replacement until they reach 2/32" of tread remaining. However, your service department may recommend replacement at 4/32" if your area has severe winter conditions.

Almost 50,000 miles on tires - at 3/32

I own 2009 BMW 328i sedan with optional 17 inch wheels and my tires came as original equipment (run-flats). My car is currently at 49000 miles and I checked the treads on my tires - currently at 3/32 on all tires. Per recommendation of BMW, I kept the tires properly inflated at all times and did not rotate the tires. (BMW does not recommend tire rotations) I am planning to replace these tires soon. I am going to get the same tires. On my previous BMW, I had same tires (16 inch ones - run flats) installed after original equipment Bridgestone run flats worn out only after 20000 miles. I am very satisfied with these tires. They last longer than other run flat tires and deliver excellent traction and performance. Run flat tires are usually noisy, but these tires are very quiet at all speeds.

DO NOT BUY THESE TIRES

I have purchased 5 of these tires in the last year and now I need a new one. They wear excessively fast, I hit a pot hole once and it it went flat, This last tire went flat on what I can only see rock salt to be the cause. 214 Mercedes offset package.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. Based on the review, this is damage from impacts with a curb or pothole. Please keep in mind that all replacement Continental Tires included coverage for accidental damage from road hazards for 12-months or the first 2/32" of treadwear; whichever, comes first. https://continentaltire.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/848

Weak Sidewall Tires

Drove over a pothole and a front tire sidewall cracked and tore.. I didn't think much of it because hey, those kinds of things happen. But a week later the outside sidewall on one of my rear tires developed a big bubble - totally unrelated to the pothole incident. I have absoluteltly no faith in these tires. In fact, my feeling is they are a high risk purchase.

lOW TREADLIFE

These tires came as original equipment on my 2009 Nissan Altima. Performance and Comfort are good and the mileage is excellent. I am getting better than 40 MPG highway. However I have 30,000 miles in these tires and the treads are low and I need to get new tires. I would have expected to get 50,000 to 60,000 miles on OE tires.
