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.

Tires came on 2011 subaru Outback purchased new. Tires are completely wore through the wear bares at 34k miles. Tires were regularly balanced and rotated by dealership. Traction in snow was fair. I am disappointed in the quality or the tread life and would not recommend these to anyone else due to short tread life.

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.

Bought these four years ago. Always seemed I had to air up the tires. Two were replaced under warranty due to sidewalk defects (bubbles) at different times Tread wear was fair. Tread appeared to be dry cracking prematurely. I could never get the tires really clean. Seemed it had dry chalking film on the outer sidewall the life of the tire. Replaced the tires instead.

I have these tires on a BMW 325Ci (OEM) and they have just over 40,000 miles on them. The rear tires will easily last another 10,000! Unfortunately both front tires have wear on the insides (possibly due to alignment issues but BMW's are notorious for this type of wear on the front tires due to the camber and the way the suspension is set up). These tires have been quiet, have handled well and with confidence in the rain and on dry pavement and have survived the awful SFO Bay Area roads for 6 years! (and I push my car HARD quite often). The street prices on these tires are ridiculously cheap, and even if a set only lasted three years they would be good value! I will replace my old tires with these again.... there is a good reason why BMW installs them as original equipment. PS. BMW does not recommend rotating tires.

We have 39000 miles on first set of tires and nearly 4/10 or more of tread life left. My wife drives highway 80 miles a day. We live on gravel road and they ride great. I don't understand the negative comments. Great quality tire. Expecting 20 k more on them.

My everyday style of driving is likened to that of a race driver. I have driven on these tires all the while testing them to their limits on dry speed, handling and braking, and wet speed, handling and braking with Superb Results! I don't go anywhere without my ContiProContact tires and I leave all casual drivers, commuters, speedsters and long haul drivers in the zig-zaggety-zag-zag-ziggety dust. ContiProContact: Trust no others! Hailing from the south eastern U.S., ah-ha-ha-ha.

I purchased the Continental ContiProContact Run Flat tires prior to making an 8,000 mile, seven week round trip from MI to northern CA in a 2003 BMW Z4 roadster and couldn't have been more pleased with the improvement over the OE brand of tires. The trip included all types of road surfaces and terraines with mountain driving as well as the famed Pacific Coast highways US 101 and US 1.

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 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.
