very good
Ranked #2 of 10
Securing the runner-up position among ten contenders, the Continental PremiumContact 6 excelled with a final rating of "Very good." This tire stood out for its remarkably short stopping distances on dry surfaces, offering a safe and broad limit range with ample reserves both in wet and dry conditions. Its quiet passing and interior noise further distinguished it, earning top marks in comfort, dry braking, dry lane changing, and exterior noise – showcasing its superior capabilities in these disciplines. Despite its strong performance, it fell slightly behind its predecessor, the Conti SC 7, in terms of responsive steering, showing a tendency towards understeer and a marginally lower grip level.
