TouringContact AS radials are Continental's Standard Touring All-Season tires used as Original Equipment (O.E.) on several imported and domestic coupes, sedans and sport utility vehicles, as well as are available in other replacement tire sizes. TouringContact AS radials are designed to combine low rolling resistance with a smooth, quiet ride and year-round traction on dry and wet roads, as well as in light snow. The Continental TouringContact AS radial's tread pattern features independent tread blocks to enhance year round traction that uses computer-optimized pitch sequencing for added ride comfort and reduced noise. The tire's wide circumferential grooves are combined with lateral grooves and sipes to enhance traction on wet roads and in light snow. Internally, the TouringContact AS features twin steel belts for strength and durability, and a sidewall construction. |
