“My first all-season tires (Continental AllSeasonContact2) Hi everyone, I finally had my all-season tires installed: Continental AllSeasonContact2 235/60 R18 103T. Compared to the factory-equipped Hankook summer tires (in Italy you don’t get all-season ones…) I have to say they’re noticeably quieter. I tested them on the roads of the Dolomites between Belluno and Bolzano, and they performed excellently in rainy/sleety conditions. Let’s hope they last at least 2 years. Read more”

Tire A

Continental AllSeasonContact 2

Positive

Community sentiment towards the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 is predominantly positive, with owners commending its ride comfort, low rolling resistance/efficiency, and strong wet and winter performance. It is frequently chosen over competitors like the Michelin CrossClimate 2 and Pirelli Cinturato SF3 for its balanced all-round capabilities. However, several users raise concerns over premature front tire wear, rubber peeling or cracking, and occasional complaints regarding road noise and aquaplaning at lower tread depths.

“Conti! Got the CC2 put on my brand new C class. Was not happy at all. They were loud and caused vibrations at 80kmh and 110-120kmh which were too noticeable to accept. Drove 3500km with them. Complained, dealer replaced them to ASC2 free of charge, and the car now drives like butter.”

“Continental tyres condition after less than a year? Hello, I got these two Continental All Season Contact 2 front tyres fitted Nov 2025 (10 months ago), manufactured in January 2025 (0325) and done about 4-5k miles in them. I started seeing some cracking late this summer on the tread as if it’s deteriorating and falling apart. This is the same on both of them where only one side of the car is actually getting much more sunshine than the other. I don’t imagine this is normal? Especially from Continental, seeing as my other two tyres are budget tyres that are way older and have done tens of thousands of miles and are not at all damaged like this. I contacted Blackcircles because there’s apparently a lifetime warranty for the tyres but they came back to me saying the tyres need to be sent for an inspection that could last 10-12 weeks and I’d need to buy two new tyres from them first. Surely they can’t have the cheek to ask me to buy more tyres when I’m already dissatisfied with their products? This is very inconvenient and renders the so called warranty virtually unusable as it’s extremely impractical. Please can I have some advice? Is this condition of the tyres normal given the circumstances? Could it be that Blackcircles (and perhaps even Continental) were supplied knock off/fake tyres? Thank you”

How do we compare tires?

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.

Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
