Product description & features

The Continental PremiumContact 6 focuses on wet weather performance and cornering control in the design and construction of the tyre, as a summer season premium tyre. Continental’s Safety Silica Compound gives the tyre extra grip under wet weather conditions and maintains the summer season responsive feel. The PremiumContact 6’s tread design is asymmetric. The outer edge of the tyre features macro-block design shoulder elements. Continental’s Safety Silica Compound helps the inner edge of the PremiumContact 6 follow the road and has a water evacuation design. The PremiumContact 7 succeeded the 6 in the Continental range. Several variants feature noise cancelling, foam inner linings, and other variants feature a sealing, protective layer that prevents punctures. Tyres.co.uk stocks the PremiumContact 6, including the ContiSilent and ContiSeal variants.

Highlights

  • Asymmetric tread design

Tyre review for Continental Premium Contact 6 215/45R18 93Y XL
Outstanding grip in most conditions although light slipping can be experienced in very wet conditions and large puddles, however, grip is regained with very little steering input. They are showing little sign of abrasion and provide considerable grip on motorways, A & B roads and even on rural and rough tracks.

Tyre review for Continental Premium Contact 6 215/45R18 93Y XL
I already have a slow leak in one of the tyres, so it's difficult to assess the situation in its entirety. At the end of the day, it is still just a tyre.
