Impressive set of tyres. | Posted on 07 Sep 2013 |

Review
I have to say, I'm very impressed with these Contis. I had them for almost 3 years and their wear is slow and even. In terms of comfort and refinement they are well above average! Handling-wise they are very progressive and offer decent responsiveness and grip for a tyre of this type. More importantly though their Bionic design (which increases the tyre's contact with the road by ~10% under hard braking/acceleration) was very much appreciated on a couple of emergency brakings! But nevertheless they performed impeccably in these conditions as well as in a couple of high speed manoeuvres on wet roads. I was also happy to notice a considerable decrease in fuel consumption especially during motorway cruising. I would definitely recommend them and I'm more than likely to replace them with the same ones.
What I like
Great comfort, wear and tear, and grips really well!
What I do not like
Expensive tyres, expected from great performing tyres.

I like the good dry and wet grip this tyre has and even though these tyres grip well, it's still quiet and the ride comfort is still topnotch. The treadlife is also decently long. Unfortunately, these tyres just don't give me the excellent braking and cornering performance I've come to expect from Continental tyres. But overall I'd still recommend this tyre.
What I like
Good grip in both wet and dry conditions. Ride is quiet and comfortable. Treadlife is quite long
What I do not like
Cornering and braking performance is a bit lacking compared to the other Continental tyres
Not very responsive, but the grip is firm and lasts long | Posted on 04 Jul 2013 |

I found this tyre to be lacking when it comes to responsiveness. Turning and cornering seem to be harder than with other tyres, and the stopping distance is longer. But the grip is very firm on wet and dry asphalt with no diff. It's comfortable and quiet, and the treadlife is quite long.

Review
Good tyres that has good grip in wet and dry whether. Nice design. Cornering can be done safely. Price wise was reasonable, because was on offer.
What I like
The good grip. Smart look. Lasting.
What I do not like
Noisy. Have used for 3 months. Looks as if the tyre has hardened and may be the cause for the noise. I am not sure. Looking for some other tyre that will make less noise.
I installed this on
Chevrolet Aveo
Review
They ride nice and feel stable in the rain, and they take the bumps well. I don't bottom out on the front end like I used to on certain freeway lumps. The tradeoff for the taller, softer sidewalls is noticed in spongy, grabby cornering. I noticed there's an inside and an outside to these tires,but they are bi directional, so the tread patterns will jacket water toward or away from themselves per side. Thus, these tyres are quite immune to aquaplaning!
What I like
The feel of these tyres are great! The tread pattern also helps against aquaplaning.
What I do not like
They cost quite expensive.
