295/40 R22 Y (112)

Product description & features

• ContiSilent technology reduces internal noise
• Specialised Black Chili compound decreases rolling resistance and braking distances
• Increased contact area between tyre and road for extra traction

Continental have developed the SportContact 5 as a UHP summer tyre for powerful sedans and coupes. Continental have built the tyre for sporty handling and short braking distances. This version features ContiSilent technology for a quieter cabin.

SportContact 5 ContiSilent tyres are available in a range of passenger car fitments from 17 to 22 inch.

Grip and Braking

Continental's Black Chilli compound, moulded into an asymmetric tread with a macro-block outer shoulder that adapts to the road surface. The tyre delivers shorter braking distances on wet and dry roads along with grip and cornering stability. For confident, responsive performance when driven hard.

Handling, Efficiency and Mileage

Large central grooves evacuate water and aid high-speed stability, while a firm continuous centre rib sharpens cornering. The twin steel belts reinforced with spirally wrapped polyamide ehnace the contact patch for a comfortable ride. The low-rolling-resistance design supports fuel efficiency and high mileage.

ContiSilent Quiet Running

ContiSilent bonds a layer of polyurethane foam to the inner liner of the tyre, absorbing the vibration that generates cavity noise. This reduces perceived interior noise by up to around 20% for a more refined drive.
