OVERVIEW

The Continental ContiSportContact 5P (MO) is a high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.

This tire is marked as an MO tire, which means the tire was manufactured for the Mercedes-Benz vehicles as an original equipment tire. This model passed the rigorous tests of Mercedes-Benz to receive this rating and it was manufactured to bring out the maximum performing abilities of this vehicle. Tires marked with the MO rating are considerably safer, more comfortable and offer better driving possibilities than regular tires.

The tire offers exceptional summer weather traction. It grips the road well in wet and dry road conditions, but it will not perform well in winter weather conditions. In lower temperatures the tire compound loses it superb traction and it is not safe to drive. The remarkable wet weather road grip along with the wide circumferential grooves, help resist hydroplaning by eliminating water from beneath the footprint and enhancing its wet surface traction.

The Black Chili compound reduces the tire’s rolling resistance. The lower resistance allows for better fuel economy, as the tire reduces the vehicles fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. This makes the tire environmentally friendly and economical at the same time.

The tread pattern maintains constant contact with the road, which enhances the steering precision of the tire. The improved precision and response time provide better controllability. The better control also boosts the driver’s response time to differing road conditions as the tire provides good road feedback as well. The precise steering, along with the enhanced cornering and braking ability, offer a safer driving experience.

The Black Chili tire compound also increases the ContiSportContact 5P (MO)’s maneuverability. The cornering ability and power are improved as the tread design and the compound provide additional biting edges, while also shortening its braking distance. The tire is safer to use and easier to maneuver as a result.
