Could you tell me how many kilometers you can do with a Continental All Season Contact 2 tire?
Hi team, hi everyone. I live in Tuscany (Italy) in the high hills, about 700 meters above sea level. The climate is temperate, rainy, but very hot in summer. Snow is rarely seen nowadays (only 1 at most 2 times a year, so it is not a problem). My driving style is calm and relatively cautious, and the roads I travel are mainly extra-urban and very smooth. My car is a Kia Carens(141 cv) Automatic gearbox, 225/45/17. My question, essentially, concerns the preference between Continental AllSeasonContact 2 and Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6, not so much on the quality of the products (widely enough for my needs on both sides), but on the mileage! I am looking, at the end of the day, for the best tire of those two in terms of mileage. Many thanks to anyone who wants to give me an advice and infinite thanks to Jonathan and the others for their brilliant job.

Review Summary
Based on 41 user reviews
Most drivers rate the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 highly, praising its excellent wet grip and braking, quiet and comfortable ride, and balanced performance across seasons, including competent snow traction. Many high-scoring reviews also note strong longevity and good efficiency/low rolling resistance. The main drawbacks reported by a noticeable minority are a softer sidewall feel with vague/less precise steering (especially in warm, dry conditions or at higher speeds) and some mixed reports of faster front-axle wear. Overall, it's a confident, well-rounded choice for mild climates and everyday driving.
Strengths

But I wanted to be secure into autumn before winter, the temperature can drop too 0 degree (celius) in the night to mornings. (Don't worry, we always get nordic winter tires in the winter).
They aren't for sporty tires, feel secure in dry and wet weather.
Low noise, good comfort.
We had some torrential rain, were you could barley see the road more then 200-500 meters infront of you, full of water on the road.
The tires felt steardy, car stable. Something else I've notice as well, might have done with that I am not used too premium tires, but when it hasen't rained for a long time, and it does rain, the roads here usually get very slippery esp in the turns.... Don't feel it anymore.
The front tires has 5,2 mm left and back tires around 6 mm.
Still mid August right now, will make a new update closer too winter on the end life of the tires.
I didn't drive them through heavy snow or over very icy roads. Having them on a bit over one year, they still look like new.
I know dedicated season tire would outperform them but for the climate i live in they are perfect. This is not too powerful car that needs some UHP tires. Comfort was a priority but i got a lot more from these tires. Noise levels are acceptable, even when i am driving with music turned off.
I have bought 3 sets of Continental AllSeason Contact 2 - for my Golf Alltrack, my wife's Skoda and my Mini Cooper an I was really impressed with them until today when I have noticed a huge ripped tire tread with separation. The front left tire is the one most affected. Remind you, I bought them 1 Year ago, and the mileage is around 15.000 Km on them, at most!
I don't know if i qualify for warranty. I do not drive on the track and I don't drive too fast either. Only asphalted roads in Germany, never once off-road!

I have around 20000 km on the Dacia Logan with them and I like them, but I don't see a difference that big between these tires and some other ones, your choosing. They handle very well in almost allweather conditions, with an exception on slush. I had a few days with slush back home and they were pretty slippery (see photo attached). I can feel the difference between C AC2 and a dedicated winter tire, but I am not disappointed for buying them.
I was trying to buy Michelin CrossClimate 3 at the time, but they were barely launched and the only size available in Romania was 205/55/16, whilst I needed 195/55/16. I couldn't wait more as my current tires at that time were almost gone, so I went for C AC2.
Now, with this knowledge, if I was to buy another set of tires, I would go for M CC3 or something in the middle sector (kumho or maybe laufenn).
I am a normal driver, I try to drive safe, although I do have some days when I like to see how the car handles on the road with a little sporty driving* **
* - while being safe for me and the other drivers and people around
** - remember that I drive a Dacia Logan, how sporty can that be :)
The real surprise is winter grip. On snow, they behave predictably, very close to my previous Bridgestone Blizzak LM005 winter tires. Acceleration, steering, and braking feel safe and controlled.
The only expected weakness is on black ice and wet packed snow, but even studded tires struggle there. A great balanced choice for mild winters.
The Continetal are more comfortable in that they handle both small surface imperfections and larger pot holes far better than the Hankooks did. Being 102 load rated and presumably a slightly softer compound to allow grip in colder temperatures (the R28s were 104 rated summer tires), this is no surprise. However it does seem to equate to less road noise too - despite the R28 being rated as 69db (nice) and the Conti 102db I am pleased with the reduction in cabin noise.
In terms of driving dynamics the Contis feel slightly more 'wooly' and just different. It's not worrying in any way but the stiffer R28s were lazer focused, very precise and confidence inspiring. The Contis do tend to waft along and require more correctional inputs on the steering wheel - assume the softness is part of this and perhaps they track tramlines in the road more. Again, not a worry as I am aware they still have plenty of grip, it's just different. I think this equates to a more comfortable experience for passengers overall but for the driver it's less clear cut - the better ride quality and reduced noise of the Contis is slightly offset by having to adjust the steering more often, not by a huge amount though.
Have driven in the dry and wet and at 2 degrees centigrade all without any concerns - they just work well.
Yet to test on snow or Ice but we don't get that in the midlands every year so who knows.
When driving on narrow country lanes where tractors have pulled the grass verge onto the carriageway and you have to drive on that muddy edge to fit past oncoming traffic the Contis do still have a little skid under hard breaking. Had wondered if an all season would be better at this 'mud on road' situation thatn a summer tire but I'd say not. Summer tires will always win for dry and wet handling, all season just reduces chance of getting stuck in snow and slush a bit more.
If I was going for all season again I would happily buy the Continental ASC2 again. Very comfortable and competent tire. I might just go to a premium summer touring tire next time though - always served me well before - I never got stuck on campfields and they coped with farm tracks etc. Having said that I wouldn't buy the R28s again.
When it's dry, it is good enough. It's a bit noisier than the summer eco tire Hankook kinergy eco2 I had previously.
In the wet it feels great. Some light offroading and mud/grass driving is also great, much better than the summer tire.
Snow handling is okay/good. Ice is a bit worse, but still okay. Thankfully we don't see that often.
For our case, I believe it's better to have a 3-4yr old all-season tire compared to using ~6-7 yr old winter tire. That's not only in terms of grip, but also about saving money - I don't need to either have another set of rims or pay someone to change the tires. Just once a year or so, it's probably a good idea to rotate the tires and that's it.

This was my first review: Hello, after watching many tests, I decided on the Conti ASC2. I'm satisfied with it in every way. I haven't tested it on snow and ice, but I'm sure it will be great. The huge disappointment comes from the tire wear. I have them on two vehicles.
A 2008 Scenic (2 front tires) 195/65/15 95V DOT 24, manufactured in Slovakia, and a Clio 4 with 185/65/15 88H DOT 24 tires, manufactured in France.
Initially, the maximum sculptures were 7.7 mm for the 6 Neus.
After driving 5300 km on the Scenic, I have 6.2 mm of tread remaining on the front tires (a loss of 1.5 mm). The rear tires are Goodyear.
After driving only 1300 km with the Clio, I still have 7.2 mm (-0.5 mm) of clearance at the front and 7.5 mm (-0.2 mm) at the rear.
I check my blood pressure every month, I'm meticulous.
Wear and tear is very significant on both cars.
My driving is very smooth and I don't drive on the motorway.
During testing, the Conti proved to be the best in terms of longevity.
I continue my analysis as the kilometers pass.
Have you noticed significant wear and tear on your ASC2?
Thank you for reading.
Rotated the tires once, front has just under 4,5 mm left and back has around 5mm of tread left.
Very good wear on it, felt like a precise tire when ever you steered you knew which direction you had a tire.
There were no efforts to drive with them.
Noise and comfort were good.
The tires were very excelent in dry and wet
In snow they were good. I haven't tired them in ice.
I had to replace the tires to nordic winter tires because we drive around in all kind of places in the region were there is a lot of snow and ice.
Saftey comes fist.
A very solid tire!
P.S I would only use all season tires in moderate climate. (Always check with the manufacturer what temperature range they can handle.)
