Continental ContiEcoContact EP 175/55R15, Summer, Touring tires.

Features and Benefits: Fuel efficient performance; Summer weather traction; Enhanced controllability; High driving comfort levels; Continental ContiEcoContact EP TiresThe Continental ContiEcoContact EP is a touring, summer tire made for passenger vehicles. The tire offers a fuel efficiency throughout the drive. The stronger summer traction and the optimal tread design work together to ease the pressure off the tire. In this manner, the tire greatly lowers the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the special pressure which affects the tire and regulates the vehicle's needed fuel intake. The reduced rolling resistance significantly decreases the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, which guarantees a fuel conscious and environmentally friendly driving experience. The summer compound and the ideal tread design improve the summer weather road gripping ability. They manage to safely improve the dry and wet weather traction. The compound elements keep the tire cool during its performance and prevent heat build-up to maintain the tire's traction. On the other hand, the tread design's better road-to-rubber contact increases the grip on the road surface in dry and wet weather conditions. The tread's ideal circumferential grooves actively boost the disbursement of water and slush from the footprint, which enhances the hydroplaning resistance. The ideal tread design and the strengthened internal construction increase the controllability. The stronger steel belt structure and the ideal footprint maintain the road contact during the drive, which upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In this manner, the tire is able to be faster and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. This guarantees the driver's better control over the vehicle, offering a secure performing capability. The Continental ContiEcoContact EP features a polyester carding structure, which offers high driving comfort levels. This structure enables the tire's closer surface contact throughout the tire's performance. The better road contact allows the tire to absorb the shock of driving, which significantly reduces the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin. This results in an enjoyable and comfortable performance. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
