Its tread and compound design are engineered to provide effective road contact during braking, contributing to predictable stopping performance.

Actual braking distances will vary depending on speed, road surface, weather, vehicle condition, tyre pressure and driver reaction time.

Excellent Wet-Weather Grip

Wet roads can dramatically affect vehicle traction and braking.

The PremiumContact 5 is designed to provide strong wet-weather grip and confident handling , helping maintain predictable road contact when rainfall creates more challenging driving conditions.

Its tread pattern is designed to assist with water evacuation, supporting effective contact between the tyre and road surface.

The Continental PremiumContact 5 is engineered to provide controlled steering response and stable handling , helping the vehicle feel composed through corners, during lane changes and when manoeuvring in traffic.

This makes it suitable for drivers who appreciate a responsive vehicle without wanting to sacrifice comfort.

Excellent Cornering Stability

Cornering places additional demands on the tyre as forces are transferred through the vehicle.
