Continental ContiVanContact 200

Good in dry conditions. But average in terms of Mileage (25 000 miles) for a very light and most of the time empty Kangoo 1... Wear is more pronounced on the sides event though overinflated! Quite poor in the wet. Very easy to loose grip both when accelerating and in corners. Confort is good. I will not buy again given the high price compared to the quality.

Decent grip wet and dry but wear rate is very high.

Factory fitted from new on my 69 plate Transporter kombi. This is my fourth Transporter over a period of approximately 12 years and I can honestly say these continental tyres are the worst I've had. Tread wear is totally unacceptable. The outer edges of the front tyres look almost bald at 13000 miles but with 6mm depth still to go. Any incline start in the wet causes the front wheels to spin. When I had the vehicle back from my local VW dealer with what I thought was a droning wheel bearing noise, I was informed that the rear tyre edges are suffering from 'stepping' which is causing the noise. I personally feel this tyre design is faulty and not fit for purpose. I am currently looking at alternative brands because they are that bad, even though there is possibly another year's use in them.

These were factory fitted to my new 2016 T6 LWB van. Which has been custom converted to a camper. When the tyres were new all good. As they wore on the front mainly on the edges and scalloped. Then on , I have kept the front pressure up like around 51psi as per tyre sticker. Wear has evened out at no loss to performance in my opinion. I'm over 60 and driven heavy vehicles most of my life on Australia. This is my first van. So I mostly do highway running and touring. I don't throw it onto corners and stick to speed limits mostly. Its a wide tyre and designed for the tar. As I like to head off onto the gravel and find a grassy campsite. I have just replaced the tyres with Maxxis MCV3+ which seems to be a bit more aggressive for unsealed surfaces. Anyway, my Contivan 200 were recently replaced at 70,600km. Probably had about 5000 left in them. I doubt , I would buy them again. But ok , did the job on the tar in all conditions Yet, nothing to write home about. Lasted well though.

These tyres were fitted as standard on my vw t6 and when new were a great tyre on wet or dry road conditions,i have now covered 20k and can honestly say these are now dangerous they seem to have a flaw whereas they wear heavily on the outer edge,mine and other transporter drivers,with the heavy downpours we have been experiencing lately ive now found the wheels slipping on the wet upward stretches on Exeter to Launceston rd A30,needless to say they are all being changed tommorow,wont be buying again.

These Conti Van Contact 200 fitted to my Mercedes Vito were great in every way.......
For the 20,000 miles or so they lasted.
There is plenty of depth left, but none of the all important grip.
I would definitely use them again, if they were free, but paying full price for tyres to last just over one year is just not on.

Had these on an ex demo Vito, 17000 miles, fronts look like they had been round the TT circuit for 6 months, lasted till 22 thou before they were actually dangerous, rears lasted 28 thou.
Were poor in the wet, back would step out on Islands with half worn tyres, reasonable ride and fuel consumption, absolute garbage on grass and mud, like grooved F1 tyres, aquaplaned alot on motorway.
Replaced with Dunlop van and WAY better, can drive on grass with an empty rear wheel drive van now, got stuck twice with the contis, better on Islands, do not aquaplane, and can feel grip. Will not be buying the contis as they only lasted 22 thou, and shat my pants in the wet on town tarmac, done that on the Dunlops in 2 year and about half worn front, and Scottish tarmac A roads are rough.

Verry good on dry and wet road but wear is huge. 35.000km and they have just a 1mm of profile. I switched rims rear to front and front back so i could made to 35000km.
