Continental is the German brand of tires known as Continental Tires, which is part of the Continental AG group in Germany and is one of the global tire manufacturers. The functions of tires are: 1. Transmitting driving force, braking force, and steering force to achieve vehicle operation; 2. Supporting vehicle loads; 3. Reducing and absorbing vibrations and impact forces during vehicle movement to avoid severe vibrations that could damage vehicle components. The maintenance methods for tires include: 1. Regularly cleaning out stones stuck in the tire treads; 2. Minimizing exposure to direct sunlight; 3. Frequently checking tire pressure; 4. Paying attention to suspension maintenance; 5. Regularly inspecting front wheel alignment; 6. Avoiding objects that could puncture or scratch the tires while driving.
I drive a Volkswagen Golf and replaced my damaged tires with Continental. This brand is from Germany and quite famous, established in 1871 with a long history. In Chinese, it's called 'Horse Brand Tires'. I feel very stable driving with them, no floating at high speeds, and strong grip. Even on rainy days with slippery roads, it's not as scary. The rubber craftsmanship is fine, with low noise, making long-distance driving much more comfortable. Many original equipment manufacturers like BMW and Mercedes-Benz use them. After installation, they can last four to five years without issues. Maintenance is also simple; just check the tire pressure at the car wash. If you're a city commuter, choosing this brand saves money and hassle. The market price for these tires is moderate, a bit cheaper than Michelin, but the performance isn't inferior, especially suitable for family cars.
