Product description & features

Building a summer performance tyre with the emphasis on braking and steering on warm asphalt, the Continental ContiSportContact 3 uses a special BlackChili tread compound that creates a bond with the road surface when the tyre is heated and braking. Continental places macro-blocks in the outer edge of the asymmetric tread design. Linking the blocks, the outer tread assists in the transmission of cornering forces to the inner edge. Braking and steering stability is further enhanced with a channel running the depth of the tread, with cross channels on the inner edge helping disperse water from the tread surface.

The ContiSportContact 3 is the successor to the ContiSportContact 2 in the road performance line from Continental. The SSR version uses self-supporting reinforced tyre walls that allow the tyre to support the weight of the vehicle after losing pressure, for vehicles equipped with Continental runflat tyres. At Tyres.co.uk, we stock the Continental ContiSportContact 3, with the SSR runflat tyres.

Highlights

  • BlackChili tread compound
  • Asymmetric tread with outer blocks
  • Deep channel with inner cross channels
  • Self-supporting reinforced tyre walls

Tyre review for Continental Conti Sport Contact 3 275/35R18 95Y
These tyres are amazing for my Mercedes. I have complete confidence in Mercedes-Benz's recommendation for these as the original equipment tyre. I have driven at high and low speeds and in wet and dry conditions on the motorway. I have also tried them on the track. They also have good wear resistance. For a Mercedes, I wouldn't choose any other tyres.

Tyre review for Continental Conti Sport Contact 3 275/35R18 95Y
These tyres are great; the vehicle feels more controlled compared to the Hankook tyres. It seems to be more agile to control. However, these tyres are more expensive than the Hankooks and most drivers are unlikely to perceive any substantial difference from the Hankook tyres.

Tyre review for Continental Conti Sport Contact 3 275/35R18 95Y
The road noise is surely an improvement over the Michelin PS2s. Hopefully these last longer than the previous set, which lasted me 16,000 miles. The garage that put them on was super nice and appreciative. I would definitely return.

Compared to the tyres I replaced, the grip on these is definitely stronger. I'm also happy that the original rear set lasted more than 24,000 miles on this level of high-performance vehicle.

Tyre review for Continental Conti Sport Contact 3 275/35R18 95Y
They appear to be doing a good job. Much better than the Toyos that were fitted to the car originally. Although for the added £40-50 per tyre, one would expect an improvement.

The tyres are compared to the budget ones I had at the back doing a much better job. I will be changing the budget tyres at the front soon and will be fitting the manufacturer-recommended ones. I did wish they were a little quieter though.
