Continental 4x4 Contact 215/25 R16 Land Rover 16,000 miles January 18, 2013
Very good grip in wet and dry, and nice quiet drive, while it lasted!

Horrible mileage. I have a 2005 Freelander. Factory-fitted Michelins lasted 80,000km. These Conti contacts are worn down and it's barely 30,000 km!

If anything, my driving style actually got more gentle with a new baby in the family!
