Specifications
CONTINENTAL VIKINGCONTACT 7
CONTINENTAL VIKINGCONTACT 7 225/60R17 99T RunFlat — quality All season tyre from CONTINENTAL. Reliable grip, stability and durability for everyday driving across all conditions.
How fuel-efficient is this tyre?
Below average. The CONTINENTAL VIKINGCONTACT 7 is rated D, under the middle of the scale. Rolling resistance runs a little higher, so fuel use creeps up slightly. Usually that's the trade-off for stronger grip or longer tread life.
How well does this tyre grip in the wet?
Below average. The CONTINENTAL VIKINGCONTACT 7 is rated D for wet grip. It handles rain, but stopping distances on wet roads run noticeably longer than the higher grades. Worth keeping in mind if you often drive in heavy weather — leave a bit more room when it's wet.
How much road noise does this tyre make?
Slightly above average. At 72 dB the CONTINENTAL VIKINGCONTACT 7 is a touch louder than the middle of the scale. You'll notice a bit more hum at speed, though it stays well within legal limits and rarely bothers you on shorter trips.
Can I keep driving if these tyres lose pressure?
Yes, for a short distance. The CONTINENTAL VIKINGCONTACT 7 is a run-flat tyre, marked RunFlat with reinforced sidewalls that hold the car's weight even with no air in the tyre. After a puncture you can usually carry on for around 80 km at up to 80 km/h to reach a garage, instead of changing a wheel at the roadside. Run-flats should only go on a car designed for them, ideally one with a tyre-pressure monitoring system.
Are these tyres certified for snow?
Yes. The CONTINENTAL VIKINGCONTACT 7 carries the 3PMSF mark — the three-peak mountain snowflake — which a tyre only gets after passing an official snow-braking test. It counts as a proper winter tyre in countries where winter tyres are required by law, and it's a real measure of snow performance, not just the softer M+S label that makes no promise about grip.
CONTINENTAL is a premium class manufacturer offering solid-quality tyres with a good balance of price and durability.
