Control has never been sportier

ContiSeal™ is a technology developed by Continental designed to seal a damaged tyre tread. In case of penetration by foreign objects such as nails, there is no need for immediate roadside tyre changes, and holes remain sealed even if the puncturing object becomes dislodged. ContiSeal™ is a sticky, viscous sealant layer. It is applied to the inside of the tyre in the tread area. ContiSeal™ seals 80% of all tyre punctures and therefore reduces the risk of flat tyres. ContiSeal™ tyres are marked clearly with a symbol on the sidewall and are compatible with all commonly available rims.

The SSR system is a runflat technology developed by Continental especially for low section tyres, which still keeps the tyres compatible with all standard rims. The SSR principle is based on a self-supporting reinforced sidewall. In case of a puncture, this prevents the sidewall from being crushed between the rim and the road, and the tyre from slipping off the rim, which makes a spare tyre obsolete. Not having to carry a spare tyre means a reduction in weight, which improves fuel efficiency. It also adds up to 80 litres of free space in the boot. Fitting on four positions is highly recommended, if not yet mandatory by law and a tyre repair is not allowed.


Why choose this tyre

  1. Excellent road grip and handling just as safety when cornering
    The ContiSportContact™ 5 adapts to the road surface, giving improved grip and handling when accelerating and cornering.

  2. Shorter braking distances in all weather conditions
    Featuring Black Chili Technology, the ContiSportContact™ 5 is reactive, giving shorter braking distances on wet and dry roads.

  3. Reduced fuel consumption and high mileage
    The unique tyre composition ensures considerably reduced rolling resistance – for higher mileage and reduced fuel consumption.

Features & specs

With the launch of the ContiSportContact 5, Continental has developed a tyre which is equally suitable for sporty cars and SUVs with sporty driving characteristics. With this new development, the tyre engineers have made significant progress in camparison to the popular predecessor ContiSportContact 3:

  1. Shorter braking distances in all weather conditions
  2. Excellent road grip and safety when cornering
  3. Reduced fuel consumption and high mileage

This was made possible due to a new compound which focuses on maximum power transmission and provides low rolling resistance whilst driving normally. This rubber compound which carries the name "BlackChilli" uses the various vibrations of the tyre.

 

Features

 

Safety

  • Shorter stopping distance

Performance

  • Excellent handling
  • High mileage

Environment

  • Fuel efficient

Shorter braking distances in all weather conditions

When braking, the tyre has a high natural frequency within the compound. Short-chain polymers in the Black Chilli compound of the ContiSportContact 5 react to this braking frequency and thus provide optimal energy absorption. The resulting heat shortens the braking distance on wet and dry roads.

 

Excellent road grip and safety when cornering

The Macro-block design of the tyre's outside shoulder provides a larger contact area, which can therefore adapt optimally to the road surface. The ContiSportContact 5 offers improved road grip and thus more safety when cornering.

 

Reduced fuel consumption and high mileage

At a constant speed, the vibrations in the compound are significantly lower. The longchain polymers within the compound can release the absorbed energy better, resulting in considerably reduced rolling resistance. Thus, the tyre runs more easily and remains cool – for a higher mileage and a reduced fuel consumption.

Consumer Reviews
This tyre has phenomenal grip on both wet and dry roads. It has increased the limits of my car's ability to grip on the tarmac, taking corners aggressively and brake better than all the tyres i've used. These tyres had definitely put a smile on my face the moment I drove it out of the workshop. They are a little pricey, but you should never compromise safety! Apart from that, noise reduction is not the best, but still really is bearable. Overall, this is THE tyre you want. Benefits all kinds of drivers, especially spirited ones. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

These tyres are outstanding! The grip on these in both dry and wet has been the best I've ever experienced. I bought these tyres after reading reviews about them, i wasn't too keen on the tread pattern but thought I'd give them a try because of the good reviews they had, and I'm glad I did - these tyres grip, grip and grip. Even when taking them to the limits, they perfomed when they needed to. Regardless of weather conditions or speed, i always felt confident with these tyres and knew they will perform, and they definitely did! I would recommend these to anyone! I recommended these tyres to a friend who was a fan of Yokohama, and have been thanked numerous times by her; she said these made a massive difference on her car. In terms of wear, my car is a rear wheel drive, I've had these on for at least 11,000 kms, the rears are now just on legal limit whereas the fronts still have half their tread. I will be replacing the rears with these again. These tyres are outstanding!
