Continental ExtremeContact™ Sport 02 Features
What makes the Continental ExtremeContact™ Sport 02 unique?
Superior wet and dry handling and braking, exceptional tread life and track-proven performance!
The Continental ExtremeContact™ Sport 02 is an ultra-high performance passenger summer tire with amazing performance features. Designed specifically for sports cars, performance coupes, sedans and muscle cars, it is also a splendid option for your EV! Compared to other UHP summer options from other brands, the Continental ExtremeContact™ Sport 02 delivers track-worthy thrills and blue-ribbon performance without premium tire pricing.
It is the preferred tire of ROUSH Performance, BMW Performance Driving School and the AMG Driving Academy.
Other features of the Continental ExtremeContact™ Sport 02 include:
Specialized summer only +Silane tread compound with molded ribbed asymmetric design for ultra-high performance in wet conditions.
SportPlus Technology offers precise handling, wet traction and boosted wear.
Wide shoulder tread blocks deliver lateral grip and high-speed handling while a continuous center rib keeps constant rubber-to-road contact for a solid on center feel.
Enjoy improved tread life via a wide, optimized footprint that evenly distributes pressure across the tire’s face.
Deep circumferential grooves effectively channel water away from the tire’s contact patch to resist hydroplaning.
Two-ply polyester casing supported by two steel belts work in tandem with a polyamide reinforcement ply for strong, high speed stability and performance.
Tuned performance indicators (D and W for “dry” and “wet") indicate when the tire is no longer tuned for optimum performance in either of these conditions.
Like all summer tires, the Continental ExtremeContact™ Sport 02 should not be used, stored or serviced in near or below freezing temperatures. It should not be driven on snow or ice.

Customer Reviews
These set of Contentals are much quieter than the Michelin run flats I had previously!
still have not received rebate from manufacturer, please help
These tires are great on my Toyota Supra. I initially went with the DWS06+ tires but found they were too soft and not grippy enough for the type of driving I do and discount tire thankfully allowed me to exchange them out as long as I pay for the price difference up to the ECS Sport 02. The ECS Sport 02 grips much better in the dry and can handle the large amount of torque from the car just fine. I haven’t driven in heavy rain yet but they seem to do fine in the wet conditions that I have driven in so far. Would recommend these strongly towards any performance car owners.
The rebate process for these tires was ridiculously bad, they tried every trick in the book to keep me from claiming it, coming up with new requirements on the fly. Will never purchase continental products again.
