The Continental SecureContact AW 205/55R16 is an all-season tire, designed for family sedan, coupe, crossover and SUV drivers who prioritize versatile year-round performance and enhanced winter traction in everyday driving. Its tread design and compound focus on balancing dry, wet, and light snow traction while meeting severe snow service requirements.
The SecureContact AW features Continental's ecoPlus+ Technology, which combines additives and polymers with the all-weather rubber compound to strengthen the tire for longer tread life and improve wet road adhesion. The asymmetric tread pattern creates a stable contact patch for improved traction and wear distribution, while five deep circumferential grooves help evacuate standing water. The tire carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, indicating it meets industry standards for severe snow service.
Compared to performance-oriented tires, it emphasizes comfort, stability, and long-term usability across varied weather conditions. Overall, it's a solid choice for family vehicles used primarily for daily commuting and seasonal driving in regions with light snow conditions.
