Product description & features

The Continental SportContact 7 is a summer performance tyre. Having developed these characteristics into a different tyre for vehicles of varying weights and power levels, Continental are adept at responding to market needs. The tread pattern is designed for summer conditions, but with rain and wet roads in mind and coupled with an asymmetric Adaptive Pattern, the outer tread blocks link for cornering, the inner section employs a more open design to deal with water.

Constantly Flexible is a rubber compound designed by Continental, with lateral and vertical grooves, which helps the rubber to conform to road surfaces.

The SportContact 7 is the 7th iteration to replace the SportContact 6. Compared to the SportContact 6, Continental says that the SportContact 7 has less braking distance, a maximum improvement of 8% in the wet and 6% in the dry and an impressive increase of 17% in the tyre lifespan.

We offer the SportContact 7 with the added benefit of noise cancelling technology, ContiSilent. We stock the SportContact 7 at Tyres.co.uk.

Highlights

  • Asymmetric tread pattern
  • Open inner tread for water
  • Flexible rubber compound

Tyre review for Continental Sport Contact 7 235/40R19 96Y XL
The tyres seem decent, however, they don't provide the same level of confidence as the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres do. I was never able to detect slippage with any of the Michelin sets that I had, regardless of the circumstances. However, I've been able to notice a little bit of movement with the Continentals this winter. Maybe the Michelins do summer driving worse than the Continentals do.
