Continental ContiSportContact 5P ContiSilent 275/30R21, Summer, High Performance tires.

Features and Benefits: Summer traction; High driving comfort levels; Improved controllability; Fuel efficient performance; Continental ContiSportContact 5P ContiSilent TiresThe Continental ContiSportContact 5P ContiSilent is a high performance summer tire made to be mounted on passenger vehicles and SUVs. The model was made with Continental's special ContiSilent Technology that lowers the road noise heard in the vehicle's cabin by placing a polyurethane sound-absorbing foam on the tread's inner lining. The tire's great summer traction is the result of the combination of the Black Chilli Powder tire compound and the tread pattern. They grip the road well in both dry and wet conditions. This compound, however, does not maintain its road gripping ability in colder temperatures and winter weather. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning situations and increase the wet traction by dispersing water from below the tire footprint, making the driving experience safer. The model's controllability and safety are boosted as well. The tread pattern and the special compound grip the road firmly. This enhances the steering responsiveness and precision and the cornering ability and power as it results in the tire's tread stiffness and constant road contact. The Black Chili compound shortens the braking distance by increasing the wet and dry weather braking ability. The Continental ContiSportContact 5P ContiSilent offers a fuel-efficient drive. It maintains constant road gripping ability which lowers the tire's rolling resistance. This decreases the tire's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, making the tire both fuel conscious and environmentally friendly. This tire model was manufactured as the original equipment tire of select Audi vehicles. 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.
