Review on Tire Continental ContiPremiumContact 5 205/55 R16 91 H by Jnis Krsli ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I am satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

Dunlop SP Sport FastResponse was standard on the new car, which is too harsh and noisy for me, although I got used to it for some time, but still began to look for softer rubber. The ContiPremiumContact 5 is the exact opposite of the Dunlop SP Sport FastResponse. In my opinion, the rubber was too soft, there was a clear roll in the corners. To maneuver at low speeds, you constantly have to noticeably twist the steering wheel, the turning angles are very large. On the other hand, this can be compensated by good braking in a short section before the turn to minimize roll, as well as good directional stability. On good asphalt it goes like on rails, there is no sound at all, but at low speeds, when maneuvering in a parking lot or in a traffic jam, there is a very sluggish reaction to steering movements. So far, I haven't made a clear decision for myself. On the one hand, comfort, silence, softness, good acceleration and braking, directional stability, on the other hand, roll in corners, sluggish steering. I can’t say anything about durability yet, but I try to drive carefully. Maybe I'll look for the middle ground. Michelin Primacy 3?

Pros
  • Soft, quiet, good brakes.
Cons
  • Increased steering angles, roll in corners.
