Continental Run Flat Tyres

Continental run-flat tyres feature a reinforced self-supporting sidewall or SSR which prevents the inside of the tyre from getting crushed between the road and the rim. The SSR enables the car to continue on its way at a maximum speed of 50mph for up to 50 miles.

The SSR run-flat tyres offer crucial advantages over ordinary run-flats and ensure that you remain mobile in the event of a flat tyre. They are compatible with standard rims and they save room which reduces weight and in turn reduces fuel consumption. Continental's innovative run-flat tyres and ContiSeal tyres are available in a range of sizes.
