This model is suited to a wide range of vehicles and makes normal, everyday driving a genuine pleasure. The Continental ContiPremiumContact 5 is noted for its short braking distances on wet and dry roads thanks to its two-part, asymmetric tread, which ensures no loss of grip even when driving on extreme surfaces. Optimised 3D edges also help reduce braking distances.
