Continental Premium Contact 6 Owner Reviews
Review this tyreWhat owners say summarised from 118 reviews
Owners largely rate the Continental Premium Contact 6 for its strong all-round grip, with around half praising dry grip and a similar share highlighting reassuring wet performance, backed up by positive comments on handling and steering feel. The biggest recurring downsides are refinement and durability: roughly two in five mention road noise (more often as a complaint than a praise), and around a third report faster-than-expected wear. Comfort impressions are mixed but lean positive, with some owners enjoying a plush ride while others find it firm or harsh, particularly on rougher roads.

Had these tires on my KIA Cee'd SW 2018 for a couple of years and while they're really great in terms road feedback, handling and sportiness and of course grip levels, they lack veeeeery much in the comfort and noise department. That actually made change them before I really had to, I simply couldn't stand it anymore. Granted my car isn't the best when it comes to sound insulation and such but it was really annoying.
It's a great tire if you don't care about comfort and noise.
They've been replaced with Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance2.

As of April 2025, my tires have completed exactly 3 years and have traveled 45,000 km. Their grip ability is especially high on both dry and wet surfaces. It may be my favorite tire so far. It also provides confidence in braking. I have not had any problems. In terms of comfort, it provides sufficient comfort as long as you follow the air pressures properly. The tires lost some comfort after 30 thousand km, and after 40 thousand km they became quite hard and started to make noise, I think it is time to change them. I will replace them in the next month or two. In general, it was a tire that I was satisfied with.

An exceptional tyre for the price point at which it is found at.
The dry and wet grips are perfect for the pace at which I drive.
It give more confidence and I can take corners at slightly higher speeds than on some budget tires.
The comfort is pretty good and the noise levels are much better, compared to a winter tire.
I'd buy this tyre again in a heartbeat.

Loved this tyre, have fitted simillar to my Bmw over many years, this one is the best so far. Dry and wet grip cannot be faulted. I run non-run flats in XL, 94Y - i find their handling to be extremely responsive and yet still provide a very comfortable ride. Wear is very good given the performance, but i'd like a bit more life. Overall an excellent tyre, which usually keeps getting better as the models move forward

I bought these tyres as I do alot of driving. I thought spending extra money would be a good idea but they're costing me more, my consumption is so bad since I got them.

The tire has great levels of grip in the dry. Steering is precise and predictable near and at the limit. Tires overheat quite quickly under track use conditions.
Tire is a lot quieter than PS4, but it is not a quiet tire. Wet grip exists, but it is not great.

A very nice and progressive tyre for a hot hatch. With regular motorway miles and a fair bit of spirited driving in the countryside, they seem to hold up well with only needing to change 2 tyres (as I rotate front to rear) once a year after around 20-22,000 miles. Sometimes there is little feel from the tyres on some sections of country road but this varies on the quality of the tarmac.
Have tried various other tyres for my hot hatch (PS4, Avon ZRs) and nothing really suits the car as well as the PC6s on 17" rims.

Excellent Tyres on wet and dry with impeccable braking. Handling is superb and saved my life couple of times where other types would have given up but they kept me planted on road. I have driven them for 52k km by now. By only issue with them is that they are a bit bumpy as compared to my mc5 and advan v552. But then it performes way better than either of two. Moreover I developed bubble in two of my tyres before it hit 50k and hence now I am using v552 in one of my rear wheel and planning to get 2 new cpc6. tread is almost 70% gone in front and 50% in rear. Please note that these are mostly used on motorways.

Been using this tyres for 15000 miles. I am very satisfied with the grip. Especially in dry surfaces it sticks the surface. There are some bad comments about the wet handling but in my opinion it is also good. I feel safe when i'm driving in wet. Steering response is my favorite thing about this tyre, i bought this tyre because of it. But when it comes to comfort, i would not prefer this tyres again. My car is also stiff car and when it combined with a hard tyres, i can feel all the bumps inside which is not comfortable for me with nearly %90 of urban usage.

Great tyre in wet and dry road feed back is great and can definitely tell when I’m getting closer to the limit of grip compared to ps4 which has a very null feeling around the corners. Very little wheel spin in wet would recommend to many one in a front wheel drive hatchback
