Description

Continental ExtremeContact™ Sport 02

Experience confident, dynamic handling with the Continental ExtremeContact™ Sport 02 – an ultra–high-performance summer tire built for drivers who love to push their cars on both the street and the track.

Engineered for sports cars, performance coupes, sedans, muscle cars and even EVs, the ExtremeContact™ Sport 02 delivers track-capable grip, sharp steering response and impressive tread life – all without the top-tier price tag of many competing UHP summer tires.

It’s the tire of choice for ROUSH Performance, BMW Performance Driving School, and the AMG Driving Academy, proving its capability under serious performance driving.

Key Features

• Outstanding wet & dry performance
  Specialized summer-only +Silane tread compound and a ribbed asymmetric tread design deliver powerful grip, precise braking and confident handling in both dry and wet conditions.
• SportPlus Technology
  Continental’s SportPlus Technology enhances steering precision, wet traction and tread life, giving you more miles of confident, spirited driving.
• High-speed cornering stability
  Wide shoulder tread blocks provide strong lateral grip and stability at speed, while a continuous center rib maintains constant rubber-to-road contact for a solid, on-center feel.
• Longer tread life
  A wide, optimized contact patch distributes pressure evenly across the tread surface, helping to reduce irregular wear and extend tire life.
• Confident wet traction & hydroplaning resistance
  Deep circumferential grooves efficiently evacuate water from the contact patch to help resist hydroplaning and maintain grip in the rain.
• Track-ready internal construction
  A two-ply polyester casing, two high-strength steel belts and a polyamide reinforcement ply work together for outstanding high-speed stability, durability and performance.
• Tuned performance indicators
  Built-in “D” (dry) and “W” (wet) indicators on the tread show you when the tire is no longer tuned for optimum performance in those conditions, helping you know when it’s time to replace.

Important Usage Note

Like all summer tires, the Continental ExtremeContact™ Sport 02 is designed for warm-weather use only. It should not be used, stored or serviced in near-freezing or below-freezing temperatures, and it is not suitable for driving on snow or ice.
