Continental TrueContact Tour 54 225/50R17 98V XL a/s All Season Tire

Continental TrueContact Tour 54

OVERVIEW

The Continental TrueContact Tour 54 is a touring, all season tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Continental offers a 70,000 mile treadwear warranty with V speed-rated sizes and 80,000 mile treadwear warranty with H speed-rated tires. This model is designed for electric vehicles.

Handling and maneuvering are updated with the ideal road contact. The symmetric tread design’s road contact enhances the tire’s steering responsiveness and driving stability. This enables the driver’s secure control over the vehicle and the tire’s exceptional handling. The shoulder block placement upgrades the tire’s cornering power, as additional biting edges are provided. The special siping details shorten the braking distance by creating friction. The friction generated ensures the tire’s strong stopping ability.

The model provides great all season traction. The detailed footprint and all weather compound work together to enhance its dry, wet, and winter-weather grip. The tread elements provide additional biting edges, while the compound keeps the rubber flexible in changing temperatures. The ideal groove placement prevents hydroplaning as well during the tire’s performance. Water and slush are dispersed, preventing them from cutting off the footprint’s surface contact.

Fuel efficiency is ensured with this model. This is achieved as the tire manages to lower its rolling resistance. This is the pressure determining the vehicle’s necessary fuel usage in order to maintain motion. By lessening the rolling resistance the tire helps to decrease fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, leading to a fuel-conscious performance.

The Continental TrueContact Tour 54 guarantees a longer-lasting tread life. The ideal tread design evenly spreads out the driving pressure along the tread area, while the wear-resistant compound slows the treadwear rate down. Their combination actively prevents irregular and premature wear formations. This even and reduced wear boosts the tire’s service life and usability.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
