Continental ContiProContact SSR 225/50R18, All Season, Touring tires.

Features and Benefits: All weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Fuel efficient performance; High driving comfort levels; Run flat tire model; Continental ContiProContact SSR TiresThe Continental ContiProContact SSR is a touring, all season tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. The tire enhances the all weather traction. The all season compound and the ideal tread design improve the dry, wet and winter weather grip on the road surface. The compound keeps the rubber flexibility throughout the year, which optimizes the high-heat and colder winter temperatures. The tread elements on the road surface boost the grip with extra biting edges. The circumferential grooves improve the water and slush dispersing ability which actively prevents hydroplaning. These enable the tire to upgrade the all season performing capability. The optimized tread design improves the controllability. The tread pattern's surface contact enhances the steering responsiveness, while the internal structure and the stabilized footprint allows the tire to enhance the driving stability. In this manner, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure. These enhancements enable the tire to improve the driver's control over the vehicle. The tire was manufactured with the Self-Supporting Run-flat technology. This allows the tire to be driven on for 50 miles up to the speed of 50 mph in case of air pressure loss as it strengthens the construction. As a result, the vehicle will not be stranded on the side of the road. Instead, it can be safely driven to a nearby location, where the damaged tire can be fixed or changed. These tires should not be mounted on the same vehicle with regular tires, due to their heavier construction. The stronger all season traction helps to improve the fuel efficiency. These tread elements ease the pressure off the tire, which lowers the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the pressure which determines the vehicle's needed fuel intake levels in order to keep the tires in motion. This enables the tire to significantly reduce the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emission levels, promoting a fuel conscious and environmentally friendly driving experience. The Continental ContiProContact SSR also provides a quiet driving experience. The tread design's center rib manages to significantly lower the road and tread pattern noise heard while the tires are in motion. These tread elements channel the airwaves thr
