The mileage of Continental's tyres can vary. It will depend on driving style, the condition of the roads, the type of vehicle they are fitted to, and how well the tyres are maintained. In general, Continental tyres are known to be tough and durable - with some models able to last over 70,000 miles before a replacement is required. This is an estimate. Mileage may vary.
The tyre markings serve as a helpful guide for selecting the appropriate tyre. The width number denotes the tyre's width, and the aspect ratio indicates the sidewall height relative to the width. The load and speed ratings inform about the tyre's weight-bearing capacity and maximum speed capability. The construction type and wheel diameter are represented by alphanumeric codes. The tyre also displays the brand name and range. The presence of 'tubeless' indicates that an inner tube is not required, while 'tube type' signifies the need for one. Additionally, tyre pressure limits, date codes, and wear indicators can be found on the tyres. A symbol signifies suitability for winter conditions. Any OE markings indicate that the tyre was specifically manufactured for a particular car model
Continental indicate that a particular model is a Run Flat tyre by using the letters SSR at the end of the product model description on the sidewall of the tyre. To check whether the tyres you currently have on your vehicle are Run Flat tyres, check for the letters SSR on the tyre's sidewall.
The option to repair a run flat tyre is technically possible - if the puncture is not on the sidewall and less than 6mm in diameter. Howeve, due to safety reasons Continental do not recommend the repairing of a tyre.
