Review on Continental PremiumContact 6 275/35 R19 100Y Summer by Adam Wawrzyski ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Unsatisfactory, upset with this product.

I used two sets of ContiPremiumContact 5 205/55/16 skates. I drove pleasantly between 110 and 140 even in heavy rain without noticing any resistance from the wheels. I got it when the sixth generation was out because I thought it would be an improvement. In fact, even in light rain at 100, the car is already beginning to swim; but, at the same speed for the second season, the car surfaced multiple times despite being driven between 90 and 100 because I was aware of how the rubber behaved in the rain. Much noisier than the fifth generation, very noisy. The sixth generation is undoubtedly superior in terms of wear resistance, but I would prefer it to wear out more quickly because it held the road better. I also succeeded in cutting the side of the new tire! The 6th generation on the new tire ruptured from the side, whereas the 5th generation never penetrated the sidewall. The roads, pits, speed, and driving style are all the same. I won't use this rubber again; it would be preferable to use the fifth generation.

Pros
  • does well in arid conditions.
Cons
  • in comparison to PremiumContact 5: wear resistance, weight, loudness, and aquaplaning.
