Theese came with my e61 bmw 530xd. Never wanted continental but lets try them out, since they were almost brand new. They are upper market premium tyres, not sporty tyres, but overall good...they claim. Looks: pattern looks modern and effective. Tyre sidewall has to bee some of the worst design ever. Makes the car look bad. This alone wants me to change to something like pilot sport 4s or Hankook S1 evo, wich both have very stylish sidewalls. Dry grip; more than i will need. 1800kg car and you really feel the tyre give under pressure, but still remains grip. Wet grip: Never have i tried better tires in wet grip. Remarcable, given this is not a performance-sport tire. Comfort/drive quality: Theese tyres are very noisy! Took off studded winter tyres, and the summer contis are the same if not more noisy. Very dissapointed, given the soft rubber and premium image to the brand. I can barely stand it. Think Falken FK510 should be my next tire because of lower noise level. Driving feel is ok, but no responce from the steering. I can forgive that, this beeing a comfort orientated tyre, but not when it is this noisy. Ride comfort is very good. It eases out any roughness in the road. Wear: Good for a Conti tyre, wich are prown to wear out after 1-2 summer seasons (for me that is 1. april to 1. November) I feel pc6 will last longer. After 15.000km they are worn down from 7mm from new, to 4.7mm. So if they last 15.000km more, that beeing a total of 30.000km, i'm happy. Will buy again?; NO! The road noise and awful lokking sidewalls are what puts me off. Price is not an issue when i buy tyres. Next time i will try Pilot Sport 4s og FK510.

Thoughts on initial receipt of the tyres in 255/35/18 94Y size. 7-7.2 tread, seemingly the norm these days, so effectively only 5.4mm usable tread vs. 6.4mm at 8mm new. VERY wide longitudinal grooves - leaving not much 'rubber on the road'/contact patch compared to the CSC5 s ive previously used. (Or much rubber to wear through at all) Despite the publication reviews showing the best wear on test at date, having used PS4s a while back, also with very wide grooves and 7mm tread, which did not last well at all for a Michelin, I'm sceptical of how well these will last. Full review to follow in the coming weeks once I've got the winter wheels off and ive managed to run them in.

very good and soft tyre good handling far less noisy than my previous Bridgestone s001s but much less sporty. yes they grip well at both dry and wet road but they are too soft with stability problems when driving on "s" turns and high speed. slow response from the steering wheel. definitely NOT a sport tyre.

Repeat of another review, too soft. Tyres squirm and slip at the slightest road discrepancy. No confidence with these tyres if in icy conditions. At brand new, they slipped as if already badly worn and now 8k miles, they need replacing. Be glad to get rid of them for something more stable.

Excellent tires in every category apart from wear. (I guess it is the trade-off) From new(7,2mm) to wear indicator (3mm)it takes me dead on 22K miles, so 2 years in my driving style. Still I am buying it every two years as they are just superb.

Too soft. Awful value for money. Wheel spin without much effort. Fine if they were 50 quid each. So, given the price, terrible.
Very unhappy. Don't feel safe with speed or hard cornering. Don't trust them at all.

I drive on country roads and motorways...lots.
All over France.
Done 20000 miles in 6 months. They won't last long.

Really good tyres, excellent dry and wet grip, good steering feel, and not too noisy.

I use my f30 ied with stage1 220 hp. Really good in dry and short braking dist. Also good in wet braking dist but sometimes oversteer in wet cornering , lost control 1 or 2 times lucky catch the road quickly . Wear is ok modarete and comfortable tires . Drive about 22k km.

Great overall experience, awesome tyre modell for sport cars.

very good in dry and wet roads. very comfort also but a little noisy. we shall see about wear.

So far they are very good, better than my previous Assymetric 3s. But time will tell, most tyres are good in their first few miles.

Had these tyres a few months on my Audi A6 Avant Quattro which has very light steering and they improved the handling and directional stability of my car hugely compared to the Michelin CrossClimate+ tyres. The Contis are superb when cornering whereas the CrossClimate felt wallowy and difficult to keep in a straight line at speed. However, and it’s a big however, the Contis are very noisy on the high number of poor road surfaces in the UK, whereas the CrossClimate+ were quiet and comfortable. Apart from on the best smooth road surfaces, I don’t find the Contis comfortable and I’m almost constantly aware of the noise levels. It’s a trade off between comfort and handling.
