Continental ProContact TX 255/55R18 105V

Description

The Continental ProContact TX tires for sale are grand touring summer tires developed by Continental for use on sophisticated coupes and luxurious performance sedans. The Continental ProContact TX is a second generation new and improved version of the popular Continental ProContact TX tires by Contiental and are often used as original equipment replacement tires and offer confident handling at H-rated or higher speeds on wet or dry roads, durability, and a sophisticated look.
The Continental ProContact TX’s tread pattern has a completely new 3D groove design that is shallow on one side and steep on the other. This offers a host of advantages; the shallow side of the groove ensures greater tread block stability and improved road contact for shorter braking distances on dry roads. These tread blocks do not bend even under great strain and so the tire always retains a high degree of contact with the road. This more even contact pressure ensures maximum transmission of power to the dry road for higher speed and driving stability. On the other hand, the steep side of the groove results in an extremely angular edge of the tread block, enabling it to cut through water extremely efficiently for better contact between the road and the tire, resulting in short breaking distances on wet roads. The combination of the steep and shallow shape of the 3D groove means that the water creates a swirl effect as it passes through and is dispersed faster for a reduced risk of aquaplaning.
These Continental ProContact TX are all-season tires and offer an amazingly sure-footed ride on all roads, and they should not be used in severe winter conditions where Continental’s snow tires would be ideal.
