Tyres were bought for my wife's car and are exactly the same as those they replaced. Great dry and wet responsiveness and traction when accelerating and braking. Not done enough k's yet to know tread wear but if they last as long as the first set will be very happy. The only downside for me was that the tyres on the front did wear quicker than the rear (probably due to the car front wheel drive and alignment) and the rears towards the end of life did become noisy. But overall I would certainly recommend these tyres.

I was going to try the Pirelli Scorpion Verde as fitted to a friend's similar Tiguan who was getting great wear but I'm glad I ended up with the ContiSportContact SUV's. On my 2018 Tiguan they have great road holding (wet and dry) and quietness, and these replaced the original fitment ContiSportContacts, Being a 45 section 20 inch size, ride can be sharp on our cruddy B-grade roads east of Melbourne but I'd expect that with any identical size tyres. Wear rates aren't great though and you won't get anything better than 40,000 kms, and for that they drop a star on value.

Original equipment for my car. First set did nearly 40,000kms including a lot of winding hill country roads. Excellent wear, grip both wet and dry, very comfortable and quiet. Would buy them again in a heartbeat

I bought my tyres for the Skoda, and they are a great handling tyre. Great traction, quiet and responsive, however the trade-off is that they wear really quickly and will be lucky to get more than 30K out of them

I use Continentals on my SLK Mercedes and C class. I swear by them. They grip well, wear well and are quiet.

Compare and Rate Your Tyre on its Treadwear, Traction, and Temperature

Continental Contisport Contact 5

280 AA A

•  280 Treadwear:
This grade represents the tyre's expected life/duration, ranging between 100 to 1000. Usually, the higher the treadwear rating, the longer the tyre life.

•  AA Traction:
This grade represents the tyre's capability to stop on wet asphalt and pavement. Ratings are expressed in letter form, with AA being the highest and C as the lowest.

•  A Temperature:
This grade represents the tyre's heat resistance ability, with A as the highest and C as the lowest. Heat build-up causes the rubber to break down faster, which can cause blowouts. The higher the temperature rating, the longer the tyre life and the higher the speed rating.

The Continental Contisport Contact 5 is an Asymmetrical Tyre

To avoid fitting mistakes, asymmetrical tyres are labelled "outside" and "inside only" so you know if they will face your vehicle or out.
