Tyre review for Continental Premium Contact 7 225/45R17 91W
Outstanding grip on both dry and wet roads, noise levels at high speed are low as well, and the stability is amazing with zero understeering. The tyres are showing excellent longevity.

Tyre review for Continental Premium Contact 7 225/45R17 91W
The traction is really good in the rain and in a dry environment. The only negative is that they are a bit stiffer in the suspension than the factory fitted Hankooks, but the better grip compensates for it.
