Customer Reviews
I am extremely satisfied with the Continental Control Contact Sport SRS+ tires 255 / 40 R19 100Y XL BSW. I drive an Acura TLX A-Spec SH-AWD and these tires are much better suited for aggressive or sport handling. Dry/wet traction are both excellent. Cornering grip and confidence are outstanding. When cornering, these tires provide quicker turn-in, more immediate response and more feedback. I especially like that these tires are extra load rated which is perfect for harder cornering, better stability and higher load capacity. Ride is still very comfortable, but firmer, with more road feel and sharper steering inputs. Impacts are transmitted a little more directly, not harsh, just more connected. The Continental tracks extremely well on the interstate. The XL construction keeps the car firmly planted. Road noise is minimal. Bottom line is that these are great tires and after having driven on them, I’d buy them again in a heartbeat.
