Continental

Continental is Hannover-engineered for outstanding wet and winter grip — and one of the most balanced premium tire brands on the road. We stock the VikingContact 7 (winter), ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus (performance), and ProContact TX A/S (all-season touring) at 111 42 Ave SW.

Why we recommend Continental in Calgary

Continental's been making tires in Germany since 1871. They're the brand most automakers (BMW, Mercedes, Audi, VW) ship as original equipment — which tells you something about consistency and balance.

The VikingContact 7 is Continental's dedicated winter tire — specifically engineered for Nordic winters, which translates well to Calgary's -30°C January nights. Quieter than most dedicated winters, and the rubber compound holds grip on packed snow that Calgary's side streets accumulate before plowing.

For year-round touring on a sedan or crossover, the ProContact TX A/S is a quiet, long-wearing option. For sport sedans that need wet-handling, the ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus has one of the best wet-grip ratings in its class.

Every Continental tire we install gets the same balance, calibrated torque, and TPMS reset as our premium-priced jobs — and we price-match any local Calgary competitor on the same model. Book installation or call (403) 452-4283.

How Continental performs in Calgary

Continental TrueContact Tour wins the Highway / Touring category for us in Calgary — quiet, low-rolling-resistance, and German-engineered wet grip for the spring slush. ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus is a strong all-season pick for performance sedans. Their winter VikingContact 7 stays soft below -25°C, which is the temperature where rubber compound choice actually matters in southern Alberta.
