Continental ContiEcoContact 5 Reviews

These came as OEM with the Suzuki Vitara RT-S since we bought the car from new. They have done less than 40,000kms (now on 39,000km) and they are around 1.5-2mm tread left (way overdue for a replacement) so they do not last as long as I would have liked. I guess being an 'eco' tire that might be expected, however even at such a low tread they still handle very well, still drive good and feel safe during braking, there is no uneven surface or flat spots or any other deformities. In the dry I could probably get them to last another 5-6 thousand Kms but I just had a puncture so I thought I might as well replace them (since the winter is coming now). I don't think they are particularly great value however they are on par on price with other 'eco' tyres out there such as the Ecopias.

I've had my Continentals as long as I have had my car. I have never felt safer, in dry or wet conditions. I needed this when driving in blinding rain on the motorway. You can feel the tyres gripping when in all wheel drive in wet conditions. With a firm grip on the roads.

Good and resistence tyres. Still working after 57.000 km. Great tyres for paved roads!

A fair tyre but will upgrade . Havent driven them harshly but fair all round after 35000 kms and five years , will last a little longer but worried about the age so will upgrade. Don’t dislike these tyres for my city driving , had them from new so they have lasted well.

They hold the road well in storm conditions on the highway and we felt safe, with good control of the car. We have had them since new so were factory supplied on purchase. We have just reached the point of renewing them after 25,000 klms, due to uneven wear, because they were not rotated at regular services. I would buy again but make sure they are rotated regularly

Were fitted on to the vehicle when we purchased it new, great road holding tyres in both wet & dry conditions, being a softer tyre with great grip one would expect the tyre wear to be greater,not sure of the economics as yet.

I have found the Continental ContiEcoContact 5 to be a rough riding harsh tyre. General wear and tear is OK. Handling is average. They are much better in wet conditions where they appear to be quieter and better suited. I always have lower pressure to smooth the ride.

They have been good for our car. Nice and quiet on the highways and have good contact for everyday driving.

Good value, worth the price. Never had any problems.
