Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety. Perfect steering precision and sporty handling just as short braking distance thanks to black chilli technology. Test winner by Auto Bild sportscars in their summer tyre test 2014 (sizes tested: 255/40 R 19 and 285/35 R 19)'. Highlights: Perfect steering precision and sporty handling  Outstanding grip and stability during cornering Short braking distances on both wet and dry roads Optimised to meet the specific requirements of front and rear axle positions Perfect steering precision and sporty handling.The solid, sturdy central ribs, attached tread lugs, plus asymmetrical tread ribs ensure optimum, longitudinal stiffness in the tyre and reduced movement in the tread. This means steering forces are transmitted straight to the road. Outstanding grip and stability during cornering. A supple macro-block design on the outer shoulder and solid central ribs, ensure that the tyre adapts perfectly to the road surface. Particularly during fast cornering the contact patch is increased. The driver receives excellent feedback when approaching the limit and the tyre provides outstanding grip with maximum stability. Rolling resistance-optimised ‘cap and base’ tread. The two tread components – ‘cap’ and ‘base’ – complement the balanced compound concept and ensure good grip in the wet, whilst at the same time providing short braking distances and reduced rolling resistance. The ‘cap’, on the outside, provides good grip in the wet and short braking distances, whilst the ‘base’, on the inside, reduces rolling resistance. Together they achieve more positive road grip and retain kinetic energy, whilst simultaneously ensuring high safety. Short braking distances on both wet and dry roads. Black Chili Technology is a specially developed compound technology involving an innovative type of racing grade carbon black, which ensures a speedy warm-up process and greater stability. The polymers in the compound are reinforced with nano particles, making them extremely supple. Thus they provide more contact points with the road, so grip is substantially enhanced and the tyre far more stable. In addition, special grip resins provide optimum interlocking with both wet and dry roads, thus achieving shorter braking distances.

The effect is smoother transitions from straight to corner, leading to more precise and progressive reactions.Benefits Significantly better control over the evolution of the footprint in all driving conditions; responsive wet and dry handling; increased cornering control. Foam-in-Tyre Technology (FIT) Car interior noise has 3 main causes: Wind noise (created by air-flow at high speed) Engine noise Tyre noise: Tread/block road rumble. “Airpumping” also known as “groove resonance” , where the grooves are compressed and then released again. (Structural) Vibrations of the tyre/carcass. Foamin Tyre(FIT) Tyre noise 'Why Foam-in-Tyre?' Tyre noise is mainly transmitted by: Airborne noise: Noise waves transmitted through air Body noise: Transmission by vehicle suspension One of the biggest noise sources, is the so-called Cavity Resonance which is transmitted into the car as body noise because of the axle construction. Foamin Tyre (FIT) Technology 'How does Foamin Tyre work' Technology: Once the tyre has been heated, a foam strip is fitted to the inner liner. This reduces tyre (carcass) noise considerably. Principle of operation: Elimination of resonance peaks. Effect: Reduction of interior car noise by a number of dB, to half of the tyre noise. Advantages: Relatively cost efficient Stable through the full life of the tyre Light enough not to influence running performance, roll resistance or high speed efficiency Currently available in Summer and Winter, also as All Season and ROF later. Can be repaired Effect of the tyre on noise perception Sounds are transmitted by 2 main mechanisms: By air movement (Air resonance): The air molecules are stimulated to vibrate (wave form). By structural resonance (Body resonance): Vibrations are transmitted by the vehicle structure. A large part of inerior car noise is due to resonance caused by vibration of the tyres. This is transmitted to the inside of the car via the structure (body resonance). Counter measures taken at noise source, in this case, at the tyre, are easier and more effective than they would be at other car components, e.g. at the drive train or the body. The solution How can the vibrations in the tyres be reduced? Fitting a foam strip to the inner liner of the tyre helps to markedly reduce the tyre (carcass) noise. Reduced resonance in peak range by up to 11dB(A) This makes a reduction of interior car noise of up to 3 - 4dB(A), possible. This means that it is only half as loud in the car as it would have been with normal tyres.
