I had the tires for 8 months when I hit a pot hole. unfortunately it caused a hold in the side of the front left tire. I took it to tires plus to see if I was covered by my warranty and unfortunately I wasn't. to make matters worse I have a awd car and was told I would need 4 new tires when I only had about 13k miles on them. I ended up getting some coopers and I have had any problems so far. The road nose, comfort, and fuel economy were Excellent. Just poor tread life.

These tires came on my new 2018 Nissan Sentra that I bought in May 2018. Less than 8 months and 16,000 miles later, they are useless. The dealer says the warranty is void because I never had the wheels aligned. It never felt like they needed alignment. Winter weather in the Poconos means I need to get a full set of new tires now and they won't be Continentals.

ContiProContacts came on my 2018 Civic Sport. Casual driving and treads lasted 40K miles over 7 years with only occasional rotations. HOWEVER, the sidewall technology saved my bacon yesterday. Years ago I slammed into a pothole on the highway and although I didn't crack the wheel I probably caused some tire damage. The other day I noticed a bubble on the sidewall. But I continued to drive and planned to replace the all the tires in a few days as the treads were getting low. However, on the highway at 70MPH the Front Right sidewall blew out. I was able to safely navigate 1/4 mile or so to a safe spot on the shoulder to do a tire change. There was smoke pouring out of the hole BUT the sidewall held up and I didn't ruin my wheel. Based on the experience I decided to put 4 new ContiProContacts on the car. Downsides are I think they are noisy for a Civic (which doesn't have much insulation) and they are not good in snow.

We have these on our Honda Fit and I just put these on my Kia Rio5dr... this is the Kia's first set of tires since the vehicle was new. These tires have a superior ride, great traction and great braking. Seems a little more road noise from road defects but it absorbes the feel so I don't mind a slight increase in cabin noise.

These tires came on my '13 VW CC 4Motion Exec car. I have had them for nearly 4 years. Unbelievable tires. I don't understand the bad reviews either. I have driven some of the best AWD cars, Audi A4, Audi A6 Allroad, VW Passat 4Motion, and a VW Touareg. All had Quattro or 4Motion. All with H rated M+S tires, either from Pirelli or Michelin. These are my first ContiProContacts. These tires are hands down the best tires on any pavement condition, dry/wet/snow/or ice. I am able to drive fast with serious control in all conditions. The people that complain about these tires, it just might be the car, the driver, or the need for an alignment or the PSI, because is not the tires. I live in Colorado and we frequently get snow, ice, hail, and/or boatloads of rain. And possibly all on the same day! Couple that with wind that exceeds 75MPH. The siping that comes on these tires simply rocks. I never slip. I am very confident behind the wheel. One time I even climbed out of a mountain pass covered in a sheet of ice. I drove up it like it was dry. I was there for a conference, so we were all leaving at roughly the same time. The overnight snow became a snowpacked sheet of ice by the time I left. No problem for me. I could stop, start, stop, start, never a slip. Drove around them all, going slow or fast or slow, didn't matter. I went back to help push all kinds of four wheel drive and front wheel drive cars up the hill so they could simply get out. And that was really hard, because we could barely stand on the ice. I felt way safer in the car! If you live or have to drive in inclement weather, these tires on any Audi/VW product with AWD and these ContiProContacts is a very wise choice!!

Rotated every 10,000 miles (Every oil change for this baby SUV) and the tires wore perfectly evenly. Car currently has 55K miles on it and tires are down to the wear bars. Absolutely awesome traction when new, we drove our Escape down an unplowed road in rural Wisconsin a few winters ago. Snow was higher than the front bumper of the car, and we were throwing it over the windshield at 30-45 MPH. When everything thawed out, we took the Escape down a "minimum maintenance road" in rural Minnesota - and fell through the mud. The muck was up to the axles of the little SUV, but it still managed to pull its way out of the mess with a minimum of fuss (Which went on for a good 2 miles). Note if you try this stunt, be sure to hose out the wheels - parts of the wheels were actually underground for a bit, so they got jammed full of mud and everything shook due to unbalancing the wheels from all the mud and gunk jammed on the inside of the wheel

These Tires Hold up well in the Rain, Especially neccessary in the Pacific NW. They are good for a passenger Tire in the Snow, and will get you from point a to point b, they have good travel life. Put about 30K on them and they still have half the tread left.

This is the stock tire that came with my 2014 Ford Escape and I like them so well that I am looking to replace the first set with the exact same tires. I have over 55000 miles on the original tires and they have about a third of their tread. When I told my wife we needed new tired, she immediately told me to get the same ones as we currently have. We live in Florida and frequently drive on the interstate in heavy rain. These tires work great in the rain as well as on dry pavement.

Bought these about four months ago since it was easier/cheaper to try to buy a new set of four (and have a solid matched set) to replace a damaged rim with (since most of the shops wouldn't take the tire off of the old rim. As the title says, there's a reason these are the Stock Tire for a ForTwo Smart. At least for the class of car this is being put on, it's a the proper match and better than most manufacturers put on their offerings- which is kind of expected out of Daimler. Good traction under most conditions, quiet, handles better than many "performance" tires- I fully expect these to hold up as well as the originals (which still had about 1.5 years, maybe a bit less, of good life left on them and these were the original tires off of a 2013 year model with moderate use...). On top of it, the price is fair for what you're buying, unlike so many other tires in this class. When it comes time to replace them again (no illusions there...) if I have the car and Continental offers these tires still, they're going back on without question or reservation.

I purchased these tires because they were the original equipment tires on my Audi A8. That first set lasted about 60k miles. After 3000 miles on the new set, we ran over a piece of metal on the highway, ruining one tire. Continental replaced the tire without question.
