Product description & features

  • Runflat version of Premium Contact 6
  • High performance tyre
  • Precise steering response

Designed for drivers who want both performance and reassurance, the PremiumContact 6 SSR combines Continental’s dynamic handling technologies with the security of continued driving after air loss.
The PremiumContact 6 SSR is available in 17-inch to 22-inch rim sized tyres.
 

Sporty, Responsive Handling

The tyre features the same high-tech shoulder configuration found in the SportContact 6, enabling greater lateral grip and stability when cornering.
Its asymmetric tread rib geometry ensures precise steering feedback and allows the tyre to efficiently transfer high forces during dynamic driving.
 

SSR Run Flat Technology

Built with Continental’s Self-Supporting Runflat (SSR) system, the tyre uses reinforced sidewalls that maintain their shape during air loss.
This prevents the tyre from collapsing onto the rim and enables continued driving for up to 80 km after a puncture, eliminating the need for a spare wheel and improving fuel efficiency through reduced vehicle weight.

Please note: before you select your tyres, ensure that the tyre size you intend to order is the correct variant and matches your vehicle type.

Since having them they constantly lose pressure and so have to be inflated weekly. This was not the case previously.

I cannot say the tyres aren't good but the tyres I normally run give a better feel, maybe I'm just use to falken over the years.

Mercedes fit Continental run flat as standard equipment. I bought this car from new, over 4 years ago. I am happy with their overall performance. My main grumble is the ridiculous high price with no discounts offered.

Very pleased with tyres as they have performed very well in both wet and dry conditions. Unfortunately I had to replace a tyre due to a puncture. (Run flat tyre puncture repairs are expense to put right). Rear tyres will require replacing soon and will definitely replace the Goodyear with the Continentals.
