Continental Conti Sport Contact 5

The Continental Conti Sport Contact 5 is a summer performance tyre developed for drivers of sporty hatchbacks, saloons and coupes who want confident grip and accurate steering on UK roads. Built for warm-weather use, it’s best suited to fast A-road and motorway driving, as well as spirited B-road journeys where stability and braking performance matter most.

Its asymmetric tread pattern uses firm outer shoulder blocks to support cornering loads, helping the car feel settled through quick direction changes. Wide longitudinal grooves and carefully placed lateral channels move water away from the contact patch to improve wet-road security and reduce the risk of aquaplaning, while fine tread elements add bite under braking. A high-grip compound is designed to stay responsive as temperatures rise, helping deliver strong dry traction without making the tyre feel nervous in the wet.

The Conti Sport Contact 5 is widely referenced in independent European tyre testing and is often rated highly for wet braking and steering precision.

Available in a wide range of performance-focused sizes, commonly from 16 to 22 inches, with selected fitments designed to suit heavier SUV applications with a more robust build.
