Type of review

From May to October, I drove in a quiet mode 17k on the GLE. The back is completely bald, before under the limiter! This is an anti-record!

Pros
  • Management is a plus
Cons
  • The main drawback is softness, small stones stick to it. Sharp pebbles dig into it, leaving small holes. With a calm driving style is not enough even for one season.

The product is good, there are only a few minor flaws.

On the stinger, I employ 247ls all-wheel drive. - the front left tire was pierced at a speed of less than one hundred, after that nothing terrible happened to the car, as it was driving straight ahead, it was driving, well, maybe with a slight drift - I understood that the tire was broken only by the pressure indicator - 500 meters to the tire shop drove normally - the disk had to be edited a little (for wild 4 in RLD) - the disk had to be edited a little (for wild 4 in RLD) -

Pros
  • Maintains a good grip on the road, even in torrential downpours; free flats included! replaced as part of the heightened warranty.
Cons
  • After being inactive for four days, the wheels became square, and after two weeks, one tire was cut on the side.

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

Its pros: the first season switched to continental, size 19, profile 35, therefore it imposes its own operating characteristics, etc. no complaints, pits should be avoided; there is noise, but my car is such that comfort is not its first feature) handle and handling are beyond praise. Cons: No deficiencies were identified at this stage of operation.

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

The wider tires (235/45R18) I installed for the first time really improved the vehicle's handling. Better feel and feedback from the steering wheel. Friends stated that because of the lower profile, it would be rougher, however after winter, the speed bumps were easier on my Bridgestone 235/45R18 Velcro tires. This afternoon, I took a drive in the snow. Skating, of course, is best done over porridge. But automobiles ride it, and it grips the road fine (only wet, at a temperature of + 1 ° C). I…

Pros
  • Dry and wet looks, how soft it is to handle, etc.
Cons
  • Price

The quality is ok on the whole, it has some small flaws.

On the second-generation Audi RS5, these tires were the standard, homologated tires. Except for the fact that the automobile needs to be stopped when traveling down a rut, there are no tire-related complaints throughout the city as a whole. Riding in the rain was comfortable, and hydroplaning was nonexistent. Rubber soft, adequate for silence. But all the joys of rubber are lost once you go to the track (PC5 was purchased for this). One tire's sidewall was worn down to the cord after the city's

Pros
  • Although not terrible, handling is not as good as the Michelin Pilot Sport 4c.
Cons
  • Poor handling for such wear due to rapid wear (soft rubber)

Unsuccessful purchase, I am disappointed.

Places one in a rut. It floats on the lane markers and reacts slowly to turns, and it feels every bump in the road. I didn't see similar elevation changes on Winter Continental IceContact 3. I drove the summer Continental and liked how it handled itself on the road, so I brought it along. If you want to change lanes on SPORTCONTACT 6, you'd better grip the wheel as if you're about to perform a daring stunt, because you have no idea how the car will respond. It's awful and boring. Worst of all…

Pros
  • Wherever they go,
Cons
  • Every jolt and thump of the road is felt keenly. Places one in a rut.

The tires proved to be very worthy after 2 years, rain and puddles of 120 km / h are easy, turns pass without demolition and squealing, ABS never worked (before that there was a PS4, when passing a turn-arc, the car was demolished). Even on wear indicators at +3 and rain, the car drives confidently (front-wheel drive). When turning on wet foliage, there were drifts of the front axle. In general, I recommend this rubber, it met all my expectations !

Pros
  • Pluses: confident derzhak at all speeds both on dry and wet roads. Quiet. I have been using these tires in size 235/40/18 for two years.
Cons
  • The only disappointment is wear resistance, for 2 years two front wheels are in limiters (driving style is different, from aggressive to calm, according to mood)

Everything is fine, there are only minor drawbacks.

disappointed . Being a fan of the brand Continental on the previous car (Audi Q5) took only conti and summer and winter. Auto Audi Q7 (M4, 2022 onwards). Hankook rubber with noise absorption came from the factory, after wear I bought Hankook again, but without noise absorption (at that time the price tag for Hankook was 15-16 compared to Conti sportcontact 5 for ~ 22 tr), So, the acoustic comfort is much better Hankook, with other almost equal characteristics. Conti has a pronounced ringing…

Pros
  • car handling. braking. rebuilding. comfortable elasticity and softness of the passage of joints and irregularities on the road surface. directional stability at high speeds.
Cons
  • - acoustic discomfort ! - track sensitivity

Not a bad product, but you can find a better one.

I bought this rubber on Q7 in the amount of 295/40/20. For the first few days, driving around the city did not cause inconvenience, only the rutting began to feel more (unpleasant), but it does not matter. Trouble appeared when I went out of town. At a speed of 120 km / h, a strong beating began . Amazing! Wheels are excellent (in the RLD when I checked when the board was polished)! There was nothing else left but to go further, at a speed of 160 the beat was a little less . While we were…

Pros
  • Brand
Cons
  • The tread height is very small, it is difficult to judge how long the tires will last, I think thousands per 20 km.
