Continental 4X4 Contact 265/45R20, All Season, Touring tires.

Features and Benefits: All weather traction; Fuel efficient performance; High driving comfort levels; Longer lasting tread life; Continental 4X4 Contact TiresThe Continental 4X4 Contact is a touring, all season tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. The tire improves the all season traction. The detailed tread design and the silica-infused compound increase the dry, wet and winter weather grip throughout the tires performance. The silica in the compound keeps the rubber flexibility in different weather conditions, while the tread elements firmly grip the road surface during the drive. The treads deeper circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush, in order to further upgrade the wet and winter weather performing safety. The ideal tread design, the silica compound and their enhanced traction work together to ensure a fuel efficient driving experience. They optimize the road contact and ease the driving pressure off the tire, significantly reducing the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the driving pressure affecting the tire, which determines the vehicles fuel intake levels during the drive. In this manner, the rolling resistance greatly decreases the vehicles fuel consumption and CO2 emissions while the tires are in motion. The result is a fuel conscious and environmentally friendly performance. The tread design also manages to promote a quiet performance. The specially designed tread pattern upgrades the comfort levels during the drive. The tread design manages to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area, which minimizes the tread pattern noise. On the other hand, the tread elements channel the airwaves through the footprint, without coming into contact with the tread. This significantly lowers the road and tread pattern noise heard in the vehicles cabin. As road disturbances do not ruin the passengers driving enjoyment, it guarantees a comfortable driving experience. The Continental 4X4 Contact increases the length of the tread life. The symmetric tread pattern increases the structural stability with the optimal tread pattern. This avoids tread flexing and allows the tire to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking actively resist premature and irregular wear formations. As a result, the tire promotes a longer lasting service life and usability. This tire model was manufactured as the original equipment tire of select Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Manufacturers
