Original Equipment Tire 215/55 R17 94H for our brand new 2012 VW Passat SE 2.5, pushing 60k miles now. Quiet, great traction in heavy snow, hot dry pavement and pouring rain. Great high speed performance 80+ mph on midwest interstates for hundreds of miles at a time. Just rotate them and keep the alignment checked. Like them so much I bought a set in 225/50 R17 98V for my 06 BMW 530xit. Now the BMW rides and drives like new. I have a very high level of confidence in this tire and I'm going to put a new set of the OEM's right back on the Passat. Great Job Continental and keep up the good work. Thanks Ted M.

These tires were OEM on my 2017 Golf R. This is a stage 2+ tuned car which is driven aggressively. I just replaced all four at 29,300 miles. I probably could have made it past 30K but picked up a nail in the passenger front and decided it was time to replace them. Properly rotated at every 5K. Excellent tire!
