I’m driving a lot for a passenger car driver and use lots of cars for that. I have a really good comparison when it comes for tyres of different producers and similar sizes. For me Continental ContiPremiumContact 2 in size 205/55R16 is close to an ideal tyre. I can’t feel ABS work on dry road and I have brakes of 312mm on the front and 256 in the back – like Audi S3. Good handling and grip on bands. Continental ContiPremiumContact 2 is ideal when starting even with my 189HP and 390 Nm car. Continental ContiPremiumcontact 2 is very silent at every speed. Continental ContiPremiumContact 2 has one thing which other sport tyres doesn’t have: it puts out every roughness and holes on a road. On wet road holds road very good ( by far only Uniroyal RainSport was similar ). Aquaplaning just doesn’t exist for Continental ContiPremiumContact 2 and when it drifts you still have time to react. Besides, riding on a wet road is very silent. Buying Continental ContiPremiumContact 2 I knew they might wear quite fast – I didn’t mind. I only wanted to have good rubber parameters and comfort of driving. So far I drove about 15000 miles and still 60-65% tread left. So durability is normal as other premium class tyres. I really recommend buying Continental ContiPremiumContact 2 as they are worth every single pound spent on them.

I have assessed Continental ContiPremiumContact 2s once and now I can only say that these tyres are great in practically every way. Extremely stable, predictable and comfortable at the same time. Maybe they lack aggressiveness a little bit, and for typical sports cars I'd choose herder tyres. But to my 170 HP BMW they fit perfectly. One important thing is to maintain the proper air pressure and check it regularly. On the rear I apply a little more pressure and thanks to that the car takes corners better. For winter, I'll probably also buy Continentals, probably a TS810 or a newer one, if it comes out.
