Continental ProContact GX SSR 

This is the 2nd set of Continental Procontact tires on our GLK250. After two sets of the original equipment Grandtrek MOExtended that barely lasted 30k miles each, I opted for the continentals and we were very pleased with the first set. Full disclosure, we were in PA and drove in snow on the original grandtreks, but moved to Florida and never drove in snow on the Continentals. Here in FL it is near daily thunderstorms w/torrential downpours and hot cracked asphalt. We could not be happier with the tires. We got about 2 yrs / 40k miles and probably had another 5-10k miles until a nail found the shoulder of the tire. We tried to have it patched but it was a slow leak and opted to just replace the set.

Much better tire wear than the original equipment tires. Not many options for run-flat in this size. Quiet and decent ride. Great wet weather performance, even after 40k miles. No change in fuel mileage from OE tire either.

Driving style is average, wife uses the GLK250 for commute daily (500 miles a week avg), but this is Orlando area so 70-80mph on toll roads, debris on roads, cracked asphalt, etc. It’s a tough life for a tire.

love how these tires perform on wet pavement and in snow. I have drove in 8 to 10 inches with these tires and they stay true to there high
ratings. I would definitely buy these tires again, no question.

What a difference tires can make! I replaced the stock Goodyear Eagle F1 with these Continental's. The ride is so much better, the noise level is almost non existent and the wet traction is amazing. No snow yet to test. Highly recommend you consider these tires!

These are the O.E. tires for my vehicle. They are run-flat type tires, and the typical ride that comes along with that is there with these tires. They are not unbearably harsh like some other run-flats, but definitely harder riding than non run-flat tires that I've used. Noise is far worse than expected, and while they are whisper quiet on smooth asphalt, they are extremely noisy on new asphalt and any concrete sections.

Dry traction is decent, especially for a Grand Touring tire, but it isn't particularly responsive and has an ever-so-slight delay in turn-in feel. They do not inspire a lot of confidence when pushing them hard through a turn or on an off (or on) ramp, as the lateral grip just seems to fall away pretty quickly.

Wet traction is excellent. Hydroplane resistance is some of the best I've ever seen, and the wet traction is nothing short of impressive. Wet traction is probably the single most redeeming feature of these tires.

Light snow traction is pretty good. For 3 inches or less of snow, these do a decent job, especially slushy or wet snow. Deep snow traction is not as good. They will do an adequate job, but I would not call them confidence inspiring in for anything over 3 inches deep. Can say how they would do on ice, but on packed snow or powder, they should be driven with extra caution.

Can't speak to wear, since they only have 3500 miles on them at this point. They aren't showing unusual wear and don't seem to be wearing too fast so far.

These Continentals provide a comfortable, quiet ride with excellent dry grip under hard cornering and during spirited take offs merging into fast, heavy traffic. I have limited experience with them in rainy conditions to accurately guage grip on wet roads. I have driven in a couple of light to moderate rainstorms with no appreciable issues with grip. So far I am very happy with this purchase for a SW FL vehicle. I believe that they are an excellent value. A Tire Rack CS agent steered me to these run flats and that seems to have been great advice.

The tires are very quite and we got 40,000 miles to the original set despite lots of stop and go driving.

I've purchased this tire or previous versions of it for various BMW X4s, X3s, and X5s. Best tire I can find for the money and tread mileage. Also, it yields good to excellent performance.

One of the best tires I have experienced. Great balance of luxury performance ride, tight cornering, and wet/snow performance. So far, very good tread wear.
