Review on Continental PremiumContact 6 205/55 R16 91V summer by Mateusz Kot ᠌

Tire size 205/55R16 91V. Read the reviews for these tires before buying. Here is my opinion on the minuses noted by some commentators: 1. Noise - I can say that on smooth pavement, PC6 tires are almost inaudible, and on rough pavement they make no noise louder than most others with a similar speed index and definitely quieter than my old PremiumContact 5. . 2. Weak sidewall - for those who complain about this, I recommend looking at the road and not jumping over potholes and curbs. Punctures from the same "opera". Only monolithic tires of special equipment are not afraid of punctures and side cuts. If you want to protect yourself a little, look for tires with increased load, they have a stronger carcass and thicker sidewalls. 3. Hydroplaning - there are no tires that do not float in puddles at high speeds. If a puddle a few centimeters deep, hydroplaning occurs already at 70-75 km / h, and the best summer tires with a directional tread pattern “float” at 80 km / h. 4. The stones that the tire catches and throws into the arches - there is such a minus, but if you look from the other side, this indicates good tire grip and self-cleaning. Unlike tires that I had before, driving on gravel on the PC6 does not need to listen to the “clatter” from stones stuck in the tread, they do not linger in it. And for dirt and gravel roads, other tires are needed. For those who drive on normal roads - PremiumContact 6 tires are excellent. If you don’t play “racer”, then at non-penalty speeds the tires hold the road perfectly, even for dry, even for wet. Zero on the steering wheel is felt clearly, the tires do not slip in corners, acceleration and braking are better than on most other tires with similar sizes, the road bumps of the tire are quite soft. And if this is not so, then you need to go to a car service and put the car in order, and not blame the tires for something. So, if finances allow and there is no fanaticism towards certain manufacturers and tire models, you can safely take PremiumContact 6 - you will not be mistaken.
