Description Continental Scontact 145/65 R20 105M
The Continental Scontact summer tire is a highly specialized product, designed for use exclusively as a "doughnut" tire, for a short period of time, at a speed of no more than 80 km/h. It is part of the standard equipment of most European car brands.
Regardless of the size, this model uses RunFlat technology. To a large extent, it is this technology that determines the manufacturer's recommendation to use the tire for a short period of time and at speeds not exceeding 80 km/h. Its sidewalls are significantly strengthened, which allows them to withstand the weight of the vehicle in the event of a complete loss of air pressure inside the tire. A side effect of using this technical solution is increased heat generation, which limits operation at high speeds, as well as significantly reduces ride smoothness, increasing the load on the suspension and body elements of the vehicle.
Another feature of the tire is its narrow tread width. This is due to the need to reduce the size of the tire, reducing the volume it occupies in the car's trunk. In addition, this solution significantly reduces the heating of the tire, reducing rolling resistance. It is worth noting the design of the tread pattern. To a large extent, it is "borrowed" from tires for small-tonnage commercial vehicles. It consists of three massive longitudinal ribs that improve directional stability, prevent overheating, and reduce fuel consumption, contributing to a more even distribution of the vehicle's weight across the internal components of the tire, increasing its carrying capacity. All ribs have numerous multidirectional lamellas that maintain traction on wet surfaces.
Key features of Continental Scontact
- RunFlat technology allows the vehicle to continue moving even after a complete loss of air pressure inside the tire;
- optimized tread profile, its pattern with three wide longitudinal ribs, distribute the vehicle's weight evenly across the internal components of the tire, increasing its carrying capacity;
- numerous multidirectional lamella edges maintain traction on wet surfaces
