Product description & features

The Continental EcoContact 5 is a summer touring tyre that intends to limit rolling resistance. This tyre introduces a new tread compound and form that minimises energy loss to heat. The sidewall flexes leading to energy loss too, and to mitigate this, Continental designed the sidewall in conjunction with the new tread compound to limit flexing during turning.

Rolling resistance improves over generations. The EcoContact 5 is now on the third iteration over its predecessor, the ContiEcoContact 3. According to Continental, the EcoContact 5, in its launch form, achieved a 20% decrease in rolling resistance and an increase in tyre life by 12% over the ContiEcoContact 3. Some iterations of the EcoContact 5 also feature ContiSeal, a sealing layer that closes punctures up to 5mm. At this moment, Tyres.co.uk has the Continental EcoContact 5, with and without ContiSeal, in stock.

Highlights

  • Summer touring tyre
  • Tread compound reduces heat loss
  • ContiSeal closes punctures up to 5mm

Tyre review for Continental Eco Contact 5 175/65R14 82T
I've previously had these tyres on my Nissan and they lasted fairly long with good enough performance. I'm expecting the same from this quality brand.

The worn-out and un-replaced previous front tyres were the issue.

Tyre review for Continental Eco Contact 5 175/65R14 82T
As expected, they are performing great. The last set lasted 30,000 miles mainly on the motorway, so I'm looking forward to seeing how long these last. Thank you for the good service and thanks to the fitters for quickly mounting the tyres.

I am familiar with how these tyres handle as they were the original tyres that came with the car.
