Continental has selected this week’s SEMA show in Las Vegas to test its ExtremeContact Sport tires, which were mounted on a selection of BMW vehicles.

Members of the media were offered an opportunity to test the new Continental  ExtremeContact Sport tires on a special course designed to push the tire’s grip to their maximum level.

The “Extreme Experienceˮ event is the first opportunity for journalists to measure the performance of the tires with the help of a drift racing specialist. According to Continental, these ultra-high-performance tires were designed for extreme precision and durability while adhering to the highest levels of safety on wet surfaces. They will be available as of February 2017.
