Review on Continental ContiPremiumContact 5 205/55 R16 91H summer by Adam Bronisz ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not a bad product, nothing extraordinary.

The performance of the tires was completely good throughout the initial 40,000 kilometers of use, which is equivalent to two years of operation. The big roll that occurred during the high-speed passage of the sharp curves made me feel rather humiliated. When I "tried on" tires that had a stiff sidewall, I noticed that the suspension had nothing to do with it. At first, I thought that the reason for this was the peculiarities of the suspension settings, but after doing so, I saw that this was not the case. Yes, the sidewall is too flexible, and as a result, I had a lot of problems because of it. Because of this, I frequently traveled over "somewhat" rugged terrain and roads that were being repaired, which caused a lot of side cuts. The impressions were not comfortable, and I was waiting for a puncture or a hernia, but happily it worked out. In the city, I ran into joints between healthy and removed asphalt. The impressions were not pleasant. As the third season has come to an end, riding is no longer an option because the rubber is unable to maintain its shape very well and has started to wear out quickly. In general, she did a decent job with what she was given to do, but I won't tolerate any more conti. I'm sick and tired of troubling my heart with concerns of whether or not it will be able to withstand everything I throw at it. Rubber for URBAN measured driving.

Pros
  • a low level of noise, and a smooth travel through dry, uneven surfaces))
Cons
  • The discs are not protected by the soft sidewall, which is also readily cut and pierced (although the quality is recovered after the repair) and is prone to aquaplaning. Just three for the "damage" category.
