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 5 235/65R18 106W
I'm very pleased with how these tyres are performing! They have outlasted my previous pair on the front axle which covered 18,000 miles, and still going strong! For grip in the dry, and equally in the wet, I have found them to be the best. Would recommend!

Great. You can feel confident driving with these V Class Mercedes tyres and they also perform great in any weather condition.

Tyre review for Continental Sport Contact 5 235/65R18 106W
These tyres are impressive so far. I have bought this model several times for my Mercedes cars, and they are great for grip and braking. They are not the cheapest, but for the safety and reliability of the only part of the car that touches the road, the price is reasonable.
