Quiet tyre (in comparison with Michelin HP Primacy), the tyre rolls well, has good grip on the curves, wear is a bit faster but that's not an issue if tyre is doing its job. Expensive, but worth every penny. I'll definitely get them the next time.

Great Continental tyres with sports characteristics. MID hardness of the rubber compound - low wear, high driving comfort and safety, low noise level. Cons: a bit expensive but this is a tyre for "better" cars and not cheapskates and people with middle class earnings. WORTH IT - RECOMMENDED! P.S. On top of that, some makes of cars are fitted with ONLY Continentals as original equipment.

I'm surprised that this model is not produced any more. There is next generation of this but I'm a big fan on Continental ContiSportContact 3 and I'm really happy that it is still possible to get them. I used them on the track, during many travels on curvy roads and for everyday use as well. They are still in good condition afer so many miles of not always calm driving. Perfect grip on dry asphalt. Great control when speeding. If it will be still possible I will buy this model once again in the future for sure. Recommended for everybody who likes fast driving.

I already bought Continental ContiSportContact 3 for the second time. Once again I'm very satisfied. Best tyres I ever had. In the past I used to test tyres on some big empty space, like empty parkings for instance, just to check how they performs when it comes to drive fast and turn immedietely for example. I'm not proffesional race driver but for sure I'm experienced one. I didn't do it for some time but I decided to test this Continental model like that, so I did. Excellent tyre I have to say. I didn't know what high quality tyre it is when I had my first set of them. After my test I realized what premium class really means nowadays. Perfect grip and traction. Stunning control on the vehicle for the whole time. If tyre can handle some crazy manovers like that it means it is really safe for everyday use and this is the most important for me personally. I can recommend this model with any doubt.

Tyres are great either on dry and wet road. This model has perfect traction, decent driving comfort and nice noise level. I used some other premium class tyres and they were not so good as Continentals. I think that there is some influence from my car which is Mercedes SL500 into my opinion. However Continental ContiSportContact 3 in some sizes is approved for my vehicle by a manufacturer. I'm pretty sure that this model would perform excellent on any car same as on the Mercedes.

You must be very careful on sidewalks and rough terrain.
