Opinion from outside the UK
I had more economical and quieter tyres, but when I saw their performance in the tests it gave me pause for thought. I decided that the behaviour of a tyre in critical situations was more important to me than saving money. Hence the choice of the SportContact5. One reservation concerns durability. Namely, after about 2,000 km I damaged a tyre on the sidewall and had to buy a new one. I don't know if this is a matter of bad luck or the specifics of the tyre (thin and soft sidewall). I have driven about 500,000 km so far and this is the first time something like this has happened to me. Read more Collapse

I have driven very little on these tyres as the old ones didn't last to the end of the season. I had the same model on my previous car and drove over 25,000 km on them. The tyres give great grip in all conditions! The protective rim flange is an added bonus. As for the wear, I think it mainly depends on the driving style, but I am satisfied. I don't drive aggressively, but rather dynamically, and the tyres lasted 3 seasons and I sold them with the car because they still had 7 mm of tread left. Read more Collapse
