    Opinion from outside the UK

    People, buy other tyres, I trusted the tests and reviews and was severely disappointed, my old Nokians 225/45/17 ZG2 XL held up much better in corners in the dry even though ContiSportContact 5 ( production 2015) I also bought XL, In the wet the Continental often switches on ESP in the Nokian sporadically happened, to this noisy even very comparable to the three-year-old Nokian, which I decided to change because of the noise they began to make, although the new owner says they are awesome for the money : ) The next tyres I buy will definitely not be Continentals.

    Opinion from outside the UK

    I had a lot of trouble buying RSC tyres for the first time. I never knew which type to choose, but the salesmen were very helpful in finding the right tyre for my BMW. The tyre grips the road very well, the rim edge protection strip means that I am no longer afraid to lend the car to my wife... as the rims always look bad after she has driven them. The braking performance is sensational ;) Wear resistance is hard to judge, because I bought them recently, however I drove 15 000 km on them and they still look wonderful :) I highly RECOMMEND it :) Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside the UK

    I have always believed that it is not worth saving on tyres. The tyres are worth recommending to anyone who cares about safety. Dry road - the car is glued to the road, no sliding whatsoever. Wet road - the same as on a dry surface. Noisier at higher motorway speeds (over 150). Normal driving up to 100-120 km/h is quite quiet. Bump absorption - I can't really say anything here in order not to overestimate the rating - the low profile does its job. Generally recommended. The next set will also be Continentals Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside the UK

    I welcome you very warmly.... It would take a long time to describe my personal satisfaction with the purchased product. The tyres were mounted on a Honda Accord. The vehicle is mainly used on the highways of Poland and Europe. I can say only positive things about the purchase... of this brand of tyre. The tyre outclassed its competitors and is one of the best on the market. Good conditions both on dry and wet pavement. The tyre is not prone to aquaplaning and is very comfortable to drive. I heartily recommend Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside the UK

    These are my third Continental tyres, previously I had the older model summer tyres and the winter tyres. I was very satisfied, and now, after changing to the new tyres in the spring, I can't help but be amazed at how much better and smoother my car drives, and how much quieter it is, even though the winter tyres were very quiet. I bought these tyres because of the fast cornering, and they work 100%. Read more Collapse
