Product description & features

The Continental Sport Contact 5 is a premium summer tyre. The BlackChili compound used provides impressive braking and cornering control. The Sport Contact 5 uses an asymmetric tread design. Larger tread blocks are placed on the outer edge for cornering and braking support. Centre tread blocks stiffen at high speeds and a steady line is maintained by the centre ribs. The 3D grooves remove water from the contact patch.

The Sport Contact 5’s successor is the SportContact 6. The SportContact 6 also comes in ContiSeal and SSR constructions. ContiSeal tyres have a sealing layer beneath the tread which seals punctures up to 5mm. SSR (Self Supporting Runflat) tyres are constructed with reinforced sidewalls that support the vehicle after a loss of air pressure. Tyres.co.uk has extensive stocks of the Continental Sport Contact 5 in SSR and ContiSeal constructions.

Tyre review for Continental Sport Contact 5 215/50R18 92W
The handling and grip are great; however, I think the lifespan of the tyre is merely average.

Tyre review for Continental Sport Contact 5 215/50R18 92W
Excellent traction and the level of wear is remarkable. I have decided to keep these instead of the stock ones provided.

Tyre review for Continental Sport Contact 5 215/50R18 92W
I have now fitted these Conti Sport Contact 5 tyres to my 350Z for the third time. They are better in the wet than the stock Bridgestone Potenzas. These tyres provide good grip without being too sticky which works well with the Z's chassis. I'm not sure if the Z requires the XL rating of this version, however the added firmness in the sidewalls seems to help the car, so I have kept using them.
