Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02

The Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 is a high-performance summer tire designed for sports, luxury performance, and muscle cars. Developed over three years, it bridges the gap between Continental's ExtremeContact DWS 06 all-season tire and the track-ready ExtremeContact Force. This tire targets a balance of excellent dry and wet performance with extended tread life, making it a formidable choice that offers similar performance to renowned models like the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S. With features that cater to spirited driving while ensuring durability, the ExtremeContact Sport 02 promises both competitive performance and affordability.

The ExtremeContact Sport 02 stands out in comparison to other options in the market, including the Bridgestone Potenza Sport, Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3, and Pirelli P Zero PZ4. While the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S is noted for similar performance, it comes at a higher cost with lower treadwear ratings. With an asymmetric tread design and SportPlus Technology, the ExtremeContact Sport 02 provides responsive handling and better grip, ensuring drivers experience confident performance in both dry and wet conditions. It also features an impressive warranty of 30,000 miles for standard fitments and 15,000 miles for staggered rear fitments, adding peace of mind for drivers.
