Description

ContiSportContact™ 5 – safe performance for high performance cars, giving maximum fun at the wheel.

It is the latest development from the experts at Continental. A high performance tyre that combines maximum safety and driving pleasure for sporty, tuning vehicles.

Grip:

The ContiSportContact™ 5 adapts to the road surface, giving improved grip and handling when accelerating and cornering.

Braking:

Featuring Black Chilli Technology, the ContiSportContact™ 5 is reactive, giving shorter braking distances on wet and dry roads.

Mileage:

The unique tyre composition ensures considerably lower rolling resistance – for higher mileage and lower fuel consumption.

The tyre features the SSR system (Self-Supporting Run-Flat Tyre). Should a puncture occur, you can continue to drive up to 80 kilometres, at a maximum speed of 80 km/h, by modifying your driving style. Only possible with a functionable air pressure check system.

  • Outstanding road grip and handling with safety when cornering
  • Shorter braking distances in all weather conditions
  • Reduced fuel consumption and high mileage

  • Alessandro S.2026-06-13
    4.0 / 5

    Good grip in the wet

    Not the grippiest in hard cornering, but for normal driving they're more than adequate. Took a few hundred km to bed in.

  • Sabine L.2026-04-06
    4.0 / 5

    Braking feels secure

    Good in town and on the motorway alike. Versatile tyre. Grip when pulling away on wet junctions is much better than my old tyres.

  • Markus H.2025-09-16
    4.0 / 5

    Does the job well

    Grip in corners is reassuring and the steering feels a bit sharper than before. Steering response improved straight away after fitting.

  • Federica F.2025-09-03
    5.0 / 5

    A step up from my old set

    Switched from a budget brand to the SportContact 5 SSR — the difference in braking is obvious. Would recommend to anyone after a dependable summer tyre without overspending. No squirm even on hot asphalt.

  • Emma R.2025-08-30

    Trusted Continental quality

    Grip in corners is reassuring and the steering feels a bit sharper than before.

  • Tobias G.2025-07-05

    Fine tyre, minor niggles

    Does exactly what a summer tyre should. Happy with the purchase. Brakes hard and straight, no pulling.
