Very noisy but compensates for the great traction in the dry and wet.

Replacements for two Michelin Primacy HP front tyres. Far quieter and better grip in the wet than the Michelins, but don't appear to be wearing as well.

These are the worst "premium" tyres I've had. I got at least 30,000 miles from the previous Michelin Primacy's on my Mondeo but am struggling to get 15,000 from these. Once there is any snow or ice forget it. I've given up on expensive tyres and will be going with Acceleras next time. Who can afford £1k per year for 4 bits of rubber?

These are my choice for summers. I have found them to be better than the Michelin Pilots they replaced. These are quieter, have loads more grip, so much so that I have not found the limit of their adhesion in the dry.
When you look in the mirror during heavy rain they throw out more spray - which in my book means they are moving more water off the road surface. This is confirmed on country roads with large/deep puddles - before I new I was "lifting off" - now I am never caught out and feel more secure.
Passengers have commented on the reduced road noise and comfort.
So far 30K miles and some life left yet - no reduction in grip felt either.
I will definitely buy these again.

Great tires for my driving style, never lost control, even at the limit I had great feedback from them. I 'll certainly buy them again, from all the tires I've driven, with Sport Contact 2 I've been very comfortable to drive at the limit. Even after 870miles continuous driving, the feeling was as sharp as when I started the trip and the braking outstanding.

Before I had Fulda Progresso (with this I've bayed the car)- this tyres was a nightmare on wet road, them performed like on ice; I had a little accident because of them a little scratch on left front wing because I didn't manage to stop the car on time on wet road at 40km/h.
When I fitted the Continental ContiSport 2 on my car -> huge difference on driving and I manage to regain confidence in my car&brakes.
Next tyres set will be Continental Sport Contact 5.
