I have a BMW 520d. I drove on them maybe 4 thousand km. Rear tyre clashed zero! One shot (to pieces) in Vienna in the tunnel on the highway when I came back from Croatia. The second miracle arrived to the nearest garage. There, I set up an old tyre brand unknown to me, and after 1000 km on them no further signs of wear. It's probably the ultimate divorce from Continental.

Founded the tyre factory. Great road holding on wet and dry surfaces. Tyres do not lose their properties almost to the end of tread. Disadvantages of a very fast consumption (19tys km front) and rolling noise-especially on the highways. High price.

I bought it in 2007 for a Passat with a 1.6 100 HP engine. Back then my odometer clocked about 60 000. Today, in August 2010 I have about 4 mm of tread, and about 120,000 on the meter. It's time for replacement. I drove only in the season. More distance was done in the summer, and I think I drove between 35,000 and 45,000 miles. I don't know if it's a good result. During that time, only once I drove on the nail and after patching everything is OK. Apart from that was no mechanical damage. As for me, they are a little too loud, and they were from the beginning. The rest is fine. Now, however, when the tread has worn off, it's very easy to get into aquaplaning and skid when braking in the wet. That's why I have to look for new tyres. I'm looking for something else. I think it's because of the noise they generate. I don't know what I'll get, maybe the next ones will be quieter.

I bought the tyres in the spring of 2007, and as early as 3 season ride on them. I can honestly write that before I purchased these tyres, I looked through a lot of offers and opinions. Eventually, I decided to buy Continental ContiPremiumContact 2s because of their handling, user reviews and decent price in their range. Now I can say that the choice was definitely accurate, I practically don't have any objections about the use, and I did over 20k miles on them. Their look may not be impressing, but they do their job very well on dry and wet. Previously I had Matadors - the Continentals are way better, and for winter I have Barums - they are also way different in use (not taking into consideration the fact that that the winter tyres are louder). I recommend.
