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.

Tyre review for Continental Premium Contact 6 255/45R21 105V XL
The performance of the new tyres is great. Since they are the same as my original set, there is no difference in how I feel they handle. I first had them fitted on the front, but then moved them to the rear as front tyres tend to wear down more quickly. For safety reasons, it is recommended to have the "better" tyres on the back for improved handling. While I was getting the tyres changed, the mechanic told me that one of my wheels was bent, which was part of the reason it was difficult to balance. Getting that repaired took care of a minor steering wobble I had been feeling.

I feel more confident on the road with the new tyres because they improve my driving assurance while manoeuvring and while cruising.
