These tires came as OE, on my '10 VW CC Sport. I am at 25k miles, and I they are already at the tread wear indicators. Tires have been rotated accordingly, with spot on tire pressure. I am unimpressed with the tread life. Never have I had to source out new tires so early.

19 thousand miles and thread has disappeared... my wife drove the same way on other brand tires and lasted over 30 thousand miles, and another set at 35 thousand. Suspension is in good order, and road conditions are at the same location. So that can't be the issue. Just the tire type itself. Good grip, quiet tires, but just don't last.

I bought these tires to put on my wife's 05 Mustang Convertible. Not as an aggressive tire as the Eagles that were replaced, but much better ride quality with plenty of good handling characteristics. If you are not really looking for a 'Hot-rod" type tire, but want a decent looking, well handling tire at a great price; this tire's for you.

I don't understand all the review for poor treadlife. My 2009 Ford Fusion came with the ContiPro and I have racked up 70,000 of mixed highway long-distance driving and inner city. I am so pleased with this tire, I am buying it again! Maybe it is the driver - not the tire that determines the wear.

I think these tires works best for certain cars like BMW the E90 3-series, etc. I guess the auto and tire manufacture develops and tests the suspension together with this product. I had the Bridge Stones OEM Run Flat when I first got my BMW back in 06. They are trash after driven only for about 20,000miles, worn out almost, super noisy, feel like I was riding on rims only. Comparably, these Conti provide overall better handling, comfort, less road noise, regardless they are new or driven over 40,000miles. The tread wear is better than many other recommend OEM tires for BMWs with better pricing too. Traction is okay even for rainy days, and occasional trip on snow during the winters. That said, it may not be a good choice for other cars, say Honda Odyssey. They also required Run Flats, but may work better with other brands vice-versa, like those Bridge Stones.

I now have 69,934 miles on my 2010 Subaru Outback with original tires. 80% highway miles. They are rotated at 5,000 to max 10,000 miles and have been balanced 3times. I need to replace in the next 60 days and will probably get another set of Contiprocontact. Hoping to get another 70K.

Purchase the car new with these tires. 67,500 miles and still have decent tread - maybe 5,000 more. I do not notice much road noise over other tires I've had on other cars. No noticible problems with traction, balance/vibration. No snow experience (Raleigh, NC location).

I had these as OEM on my 2006 VW Jetta and I just now repalced them with the same tire at 55k miles. There are many reviews from VW owners saying thet these tirees only lasted 20k, but mine lasted over 50k on three different cars and multiple sets. Maybe it is the driving style or bad run of tires, but my expereince has always been positive with these tires on all of the VW's I have owned.

THESE TIRES CAME ON OUR 6 CYL DODGE CHARGER POLICE CAR. PATROL SMALL VILLAGE, MAINLY ONE DRIVER FOR THIS CAR. WE RAN SNOW TIRES OVER THE WINTER, HAVE 16,000 MILES ON THE CAR TOTAL. THESE TIRES ARE SHOT WITH LESS THAN 10,000 MILES. OUR ALL WHEEL DRIVE DURANGO STOCK TIRES LASTED LONGER.

I don't know what happened to the quality of Continental Tires but my tires wore completely out around 30,000 miles. Even after regular rotation and inflation checks they just don't last. On the upside they are very quiet on the road and provide good traction in wet conditions.
