Continental SportContact 7 vs Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2 — Compared

“Hi, i'll give my take since i've made 15K kilometers with the front tyres changed to the SC7. They last longer on normal road use and they won't give you that typical LSD noise when maneuvering. BUT you'll feel right away that they are softer on the side in the first faster than normal curve. I did not find differences while raining. On the racetrack... maybe the side is too soft, but in general i found them worse than the stock pirelli. Also, on the track you almost have to be weary of the rim from how much the side squishes and wears. I think they could be used for everyday driving, but another set of rims with other tyres should be taken into consideration when doing track days.”

“US doesn't have the PS5 or PS5S yet but the 4s and 4 were top performing for years and still are. Sport contact 7 would be my 2nd choice.”

“Can’t look past the sport contact 7s for me, both in terms of price and performance. I prefer them to the PS4S. The ride is better, they aren’t as loud, they are cheaper and wet grip is noticeable better. I’ve only used them on fairly big RWD stuff so can’t comment on how they’d be on something lighter and FWD. They are awesome on the 5 series and M3”
