Continental ProContact GX SSR 235/40R18, All Season, Touring tires.

Features and Benefits: All weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Run flat tire model; Fuel efficient performance; Comfortable performance; Continental ProContact GX SSR TiresThe Continental ProContact GX SSR is a touring, all season tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. The tire promotes excellent all weather traction. The all season compound and the optimal tread design work together to boost the dry, wet and winter weather grip on the road surface. The compound elements maintain the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures, while the tread design upgrades the surface grip with extra biting edges. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the footprint, resulting in a secure wet performance. The maintained surface contact of the upgrades the controllability. The better road contact allows the tire to enhance the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. This enables the tire to boost the steering response time and accuracy to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the model. The shoulder block pattern enables the tire to optimize the cornering and maneuvering ability with the use of extra biting edges. This results in a safer performance. The Self-Supporting Run Flat technology, or SSR for short, enables the tire's limited, temporary performance in case of air pressure loss. This technology allows the tire to securely perform once air pressure leaves the tire for 50 miles for 50 miles. As a result, the vehicle will not be stranded on the side of the road, ensuring a safer performing ability. Run flat tires should not be mounted on the same vehicle with regular tires due to the difference in the weight of their internal structure. The silica compound and the stronger traction allow the tire to minimize the rolling resistance. They ease the pressure off the tire to achieve this, resulting in a fuel efficient performance. The rolling resistance is the pressure affecting the tire which determines the vehicle's fuel usage while the tires are in motion. Lowering the rolling resistance enables the tire to decrease the vehicle's fuel intake and CO2 emission, resulting in a fuel efficient and environmentally friendly driving experience. The Continental ProContact GX SSR utilizes the tread design and the stronger compound to ensure a comfortable drive. The tread's variable pitch sequence manages to negate the soundwaves while the tires are in motion. This is ensured with the sound-cancellin
