Review on Continental PremiumContact 6 205/55 R16 91V summer by Wiktor Krel ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

An unattractive product, an unprofitable purchase.

Bought in size 235/45/18 98W XL FP, made in Portugal. I did not expect this from a premium, expensive rubber. Already ordered a new one. In theory, it is possible to operate with such damage on the rear wheels. But I won't risk it. It is not known, perhaps some layers of rubber are broken and this is a future hernia. For myself I understood one thing, like many others. That all these tests, advertising, marketing, and even reviews are complete nonsense. Every tire is different. Just like everyone has their own driving style. But there was no collision at speed, a swoop, or some kind of surprise, in which you realize your guilt. It turns out that any, not even the strongest pit, will send these tires to the trash. The company where I bought the tires (Peter Wheel) does not give an extended warranty. I won't even look at them again in the future. No matter what places she occupies in the tests, and no matter what they write about her.

Pros
  • Manageability, comfort.
Cons
  • Too soft, which also causes rolling at high temperatures, weak sidewalls, far from quiet, not for our roads, and this is true. I don’t understand how FP or FR (disc protection) can work if the sidewalls themselves are simply not designed for this. Is that from the side pressing. Any, not even the biggest hole, and the wheel to throw. I drove around the accident, to a complete stop, drove onto the curb 5-6 cm slowly, knowing about the profile 45, not the lowest. A slight thud, it feels like I'm driving over a curb with a flat tire. Heat, in the wheel 2.8 was. That's it, the sidewall is in the trash, a piece of rubber just broke off like a bar of chocolate. I didn't feel any tire resistance at all. This is a star guys. The wheel is 4 months old.
