Tire specifications
DescriptionDescription Continental ContiSportContact 5 SUV
The Continental ContiSportContact 5 SUV summer tire, like the model on which it was based, demonstrates its highest performance at high speeds. But at the same time, the tire is designed for crossovers and SUVs, which differ from conventional passenger cars in their increased weight.
Excellent traction and handling are largely provided by the design of the shoulder areas of the tread. The blocks located here are optimized so that when multidirectional acceleration forces act on them, the contact patch remains as large as possible and does not change its size. This significantly improves traction, making handling reliable and predictable.
Much of the benefits of this tire are provided by the Black Chilli rubber compound. Its main feature is polymer compounds that change the temperature characteristics of the compound depending on road conditions and driving mode. It is most pronounced when braking, when the rubber compound, heating up, shortens the braking distance.
The same polymer compounds in the composition of the compound significantly reduce fuel consumption. When driving smoothly, they do not allow the tread to heat up, which reduces rolling resistance. This same feature has a positive effect on the durability of the tread.
The main features of the Continental ContiSportContact 5 SUV:
- reinforced carcass and breaker construction provides the SUV tire with the same characteristics as the model for passenger cars;
- optimized shoulder blocks improve handling and traction at high speeds;
- rubber compound with modern polymers shortens the braking distance, reduces fuel consumption, and increases the service life of the tread.

I fitted this tyre size 255/50R19 on my Mercedes ML W164 at the start of a season. 15,000 km was enough to understand all the product's characteristics. This is a pure road tyre for dry asphalt with a one-season lifespan. I hope that's clear. I've highlighted it. On the rear axle of my ML (despite the 50/50 axle load distribution) the maximum mileage until the factory's control threshold is 18,000 km.

The tire is specified in the owner's manual for the vehicle, supercharge 510 power, so I took it. The impression is not bad, but there are two buts: the tire is very soft, there were a lot of punctures, I constantly picked up nails and screws and wheels. And secondly, the tire is only two years old and then it's scrap. It wears out very quickly.

The vehicle on this tire has traveled approximately 20,000 km +/- 2,000. The driving style is extremely calm, almost grandfatherly.
Out of 20,000 km on the highway, the car has traveled 14,000 (drove to the sea twice). There are things to note.
1 + . This is a very pleasant tire to operate with excellent smoothness and the ability to absorb many road irregularities. A big plus.
2 + . Overall, it's not noisy. The acoustic comfort is sufficient not to dream of other wheels while driving for a long time. It's worth noting that I have excellent soundproofing in my Q5, and on other cars, the acoustics may be more pronounced. That is, a subjective point from me.
3 + . In any weather conditions, I didn't feel vulnerable on the road. Rain, downpour, heat, frost, coolness, a rut full of water - I was calm about contact with the road everywhere. A big plus.
There are only 2 significant minuses.
1 - . After 20,000 km of calm driving on a straight road, the tire has worn out almost to the wear indicators. All 4 wheels. Curtain.
There is no wear resistance. The car is new, the pressure is always in order, the suspension angles are all in the green (checked 2 times a year).2 - . The current price for tires of 20,000 rubles per piece with a resource intensity of 22-25,000 km is robbery.
I won't recommend or dissuade anyone from buying, but I won't buy it again myself.
There is tire rubber that is no worse, but much more durable.- Vehicle:
