Continental CONTISPORTCONTACT 5P
The ContiSportContact 5P is a high-performance summer tire from Continental Tire, specifically designed for luxurious sports cars, coupes, and sedans. Its main objective is to provide excellent steering accuracy, stability during cornering, and quick stopping capabilities in both dry and wet conditions. However, it is important to note that this tire is not suitable for driving in extremely cold temperatures, snowy, or icy conditions. One of the key features of the ContiSportContact 5P is its tread compound, which incorporates Continental's Black Chilli Technology. This innovative compound consists of a racing-grade carbon black that ensures the tire warms up quickly and specialized grip resins that optimize traction on different road surfaces. By blending the flexibility of the rubber with the rigidity of the tread, this compound delivers superior performance. The tire has an asymmetric tread design with a continuous center rib or multiple ribs in wider sizes, specifically for rear axle applications. The presence of numerous small, interlocked tread blocks enhances grip and maneuverability. Additionally, circumferential grooves facilitate water flow to prevent hydroplaning, while transverse block edges redirect water for improved wet traction. Internally, the ContiSportContact 5P features a cap and base tread with optimized rolling resistance. This structure, combined with twin steel belts reinforced with spirally wrapped polyamide, enhances both the ride quality and the tire's ability to maintain vertical flexibility and lateral rigidity during contact with the road. In select sizes, the ContiSportContact 5P is equipped with Continental's ContiSilent Technology. This technology involves the application of a layer of sound-absorbing foam to the inner liner of the tire, effectively reducing cabin noise for a more comfortable driving experience. These sizes can be easily identified in the specifications page and search results.
