The PureContact LS is a Grand Touring All-Season tire manufactured by Continental. It is designed for drivers of family sedans, coupes, minivans, and small crossovers who prioritize responsive handling, sporty steering feel, quiet comfort, and year-round traction. This tire offers a refined ride similar to premium touring tires, while still providing an engaging driving experience and reliable grip in dry, wet, and even wintry conditions. Its all-season tread compound includes temperature-activated functional polymers that enhance compound bonding, leading to improved tire wear and fuel efficiency. To ensure optimal performance, the PureContact LS tire features an asymmetric pattern with stable tread blocks in the shoulders, providing excellent lateral grip and high-speed handling. The wide, central rib contributes to a solid on-center feel and confident straight-line tracking. Comfort Ride Technology is integrated into this tire, with an underlay beneath the tread that isolates it from the casing, reducing vibration in the cabin. Continental's +Silane additives enhance traction on slippery surfaces, while the sweeping grooves and deep, circumferential channels help resist hydroplaning. Additionally, the siped shoulders and intermediate tread blocks create biting edges necessary for snowy or icy conditions, and the traction grooves effectively trap snow within the tread, providing improved snow-to-snow traction. Internally, the PureContact LS features a single ply, polyester casing. Its mid- to high-apex construction strikes a balance between responsive handling and performance, as well as ride comfort. Two polyamide overlays reinforce the dual steel belts, enhancing durability and high-speed uniformity.
