Continental ContiSportContact 5P Summer 285/30ZR19 98Y XL Passenger Tire 03589900000

Features and Benefits: Summer weather traction; High speed controllability; Fuel efficient performance; Continental ContiSportContact 5P TiresThe Continental ContiSportContact 5P is a high performance, summer tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. The tire upgrades the summer weather performing safety. The durable Black Chili summer compound an... mored the ideal tread design placement increase the dry and wet weather grip on the road surface. The compound is strengthened against heat build-up in summer weather conditions, while the tread design's better surface contact upgrades the grip on the road surface with extra biting edges. The tread's optimized groove pattern allows the tire to disperse water and slush from the footprint, avoiding hydroplaning in the process. The optimized footprint of the tire enables the model to maintain the road surface contact throughout its performance. As a result, the tire significantly upgrades the high speed controllability and the braking power. This enables the tire to improve the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The better road contact enhances the steering response time and accuracy to the driver's instructions, while it also secures the structural stability. The tire's Black Chili compound and the ideal tread pattern manage to shorten the braking distance by creating friction between the tire and the road surface. The tread design's side and center pattern allow the tire to increase the cornering capability. These elements create friction between the tire and the road surface to ensure a safer maneuvering power. The Continental ContiSportContact 5P guarantees a fuel efficient performance. The rolling resistance is reduced with the stronger traction of the tread design and the Black Chili compound, as they enhance the traction. This enhancement decreases the rolling resistance as it eases the pressure off the tire with the stronger traction. The rolling resistance is the pressure affecting the tire, which determines the vehicle's needed fuel intake levels. This results in the model's fuel conscious drive, as it greatly lowers the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emission levels. In this manner, the tire ensures an environmentally friendly driving experience. This tire model was manufactured as the original equipment tire of select Mercedes-Benz 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.
