Product description & features

The Continental ContiEcoContact 5 is an energy-efficient passenger summer car tyre designed with reduced rolling resistance. The ContiEcoContact 5 is built with a rubber compound and casing that expend less energy while rolling. Flat tyre contours reduce the deformation of the tyre and help distribute tread wear. The tyre has a series of longitudinal grooves that help drainage, and an array of slits in the tread blocks work as tactile features for improved braking performance on wet roads.

Within the same product range, the EcoContact 6 has replaced the ContiEcoContact 5. The ContiEcoContact 5 comes in various constructions and has Reinforced Sidewalls, which offer support after a loss of air pressure with the run-flat construction, and ContiSeal, which has an internal sealing layer to close tread punctures. At Tyres.co.uk you can find various constructions of the ContiEcoContact 5, including the SSR run-flat construction and the ContiSeal.

Highlights

  • Reduced rolling resistance
  • Front-to-back drainage grooves
  • Wet-road braking slits
  • Run-flat and puncture-sealing versions

Tyre review for Continental Conti Eco Contact 5 225/55R17 101V XL
The old tyre was almost completely worn out, so the improved grip from the new tyre was quite obvious.

Tyre review for Continental Conti Eco Contact 5 225/55R17 101V XL
Great. I haven't used my previous tyres until they were worn out because I don't drive a lot, but considering that they were on the car since 2017, they started to crack and needed to be replaced. I picked the same ones again because they survived again, and coped with all types of weather for 7 years.

Since they came as factory standard with my Mercedes, I decided to keep them. I really appreciate the grip they have, I do not find them to be loud on the road either.
