Seems to be lasting well . I run tyres to ECO settings therefore quite hard . I haven't used them in the snow yet .

You can have pretty a lot of fun on ContiSportContact. Their grip is just brilliant. They behave very whel while moving-off on dry road surface but it could be a bit better while braking. On wet there is no drama, they are 300% better than Barum Bravuris that I used some time ago.

It's a shame these are discontinued, they came standard on my 197 and I managed to grab another set before they were taken off sale. They've done 2 track days, numerous fast winding road drives, my commute and general pottering around and they still have plenty of life left. They've got brilliant dry grip and the breakaway at speed is very progressive, letting you anticipate and correct oversteer. They do under steer like a b**** when it's wet and you're pressing on through increasingly tight bends or chicanes. All in, I'd have them again and recommend them to anyone who wants a general all rounder with emphasis on fast dry driving.

I am very disappointed. I bought them for the second time because they were the best tyres that I ever had. I weared them in my Subaru Impreza Wrx STi (4x4, 320HP/520Nm) - my car sticked to the tarmac realy well. I have tested them on air fields during rain, between cones etc They were just briliant. Today, few years later I put the same tyres in the same size to my Mercedes E350 CDi Coupe (RWD, 231HP/540Nm) and it turned out that they cannot transfer the torque to the tarmac. I've tested them on asphalt... I heated them to over 50C degrees and it was the same. My car skids every time when I put the pedal to the metal. My ESP turns on as well. Don't recommend.

I think the impact on my estimation is definitely a car which we move to Mercedes SL500 these tires on a wet nawierzcni simply are too weak adhesive in other words the power transmitted to the wheels too much, maybe it's a matter of rozmieiaru 255 back and 235 from the front. Although the manufacturer has homologated tires for my car with oznaczniem MO. SportContat3 comparison to Michelin in size 245 and 275 FRONT back. They were brilliant on both dry and wet nawierzcni. Conti3 definitely lose this comparison, the wet you have to really be careful and not only when accelerating but also in the tighter bends.
