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

Overall doing well, but as is the case with low-profile tyres, struggles with potholes.

Tyre review for Continental Premium Contact 6 245/50R18 100Y
We take a few yearly trips from the UK to Spain as well as use our car a lot throughout the year in Spain. The tyres have been exceptional, demonstrating very little wear and still look brand new. We encounter problems on snow covered mountain roads, wet road surfaces, and extreme heat. These tyres inspire confidence and we will certainly replace them with the same set.
