ContinentalGrand Prix 4-Season Road Tire(Return to Product Page)

I'm a big fan of this tire, having tried michelins, vredesteins, and a couple of other conti varieties. This tire hits the sweet spot for me of grip, puncture resistance, and longevity. I think I got over 3000 miles off the past pair, but that was probably not the smartest thing I've ever done. By the time I crossed 2500 the rubber was starting to feel less grippy to the point that I ordered replacements. They also go on sale often enough that you can protect yourself from the sticker shock by buying ahead.

No tire is puncture proof, but these do as good a job as you could ask for.

Incredible tires!

After almost 6,000 of near-daily 4-season abuse I finally tore a few chunks out one of these tires (28c). It's mate is still going strong on my front tire. 2 flats for the pair in this time. This is all on a steel frame touring bike with an average of 200-220 lbs of rider and gear (this is my all-around don't-own-a-car bike...bike camping, short tours, errands with a BOB trailer and/or racks, you name it).

They're light and therefore significantly more fun and comfortable to ride than heavier commuter tires. I'm no weight weenie but the spinning weight of a rim/tire makes a huge difference compared to something just carried on the bike (like beer...belly or bottled). I recently caught a pot hole with the tires running somewhat low (50-ish psi). Dented both rims but didn't get a pinch flat.

While they're more expensive than many tires their durability is famous and the ride is totally worth it in my opinion. biketiresdirect has had great sales on them recently too, which makes it a no brainer. I just bought a second pair for my road bike and am planning to ride the one remaining tire from my old pair into the ground to see how long it will last.

I got these for my winter road bike. It's used for a five mile commute year round and also for fast club rides. The tires have performed admirably in the few months I've had them. They don't feel like they have the same absolute limits as my GP4000S on my summer bike, but darn close, and I love the fact that they're using Vectran belts, since I've had a great experience with Vectran using Schwalbe Marathon Supremes in the past. Mounting was easy enough and they're nice looking tires.

The one thing that would make these perfect as a winter tire is a reflective strip on the sidewall, a la Schwalbe. Otherwise it has all the makings of a great tire.

Used to run Gator Skins and was happy with them but these grip noticeably better especially in wet conditions.

They are pricey tires but BTD are stellar and make them well worth the money.

I used to run a tire that rode great and looked fantastic on my bike but oh man, flat city. So I changed to a bulletproof Schwalbe. No more flats but the tires were significantly heavier and they felt that way. I opted for a bit less flat protection for a better ride. These tires delivered big time. Way better ride quality and, so far, no flats. I'm a happy rider again.

I bought these tires last spring after having tons of flats with my regular tires. I've ridden over 2000 hard miles and I've never had a flat with these tires! They ride well for a training tire and would probably work OK for racing. The tread on my rear wheel is pretty worn so I know I'm going to have to replace it soon. I have already bought another set for when that day comes. These tires are a bit pricey but when you consider how long they last and the reduced number of flats you are likely to get, these are a great value.

I've been commuting 25 miles almost daily for 13 years. Definitely best bike tire for road bike commuting. Grips to road. Almost no flats even with broken glass from recycling all over city streets.

I've had a very good experience with the Continental Grand Prix 4-Season Road Tires I have purchased. Long life, ease of replacing, and good value

These tires are awesome! Ride nice and smooth, however are tough and do not puncture. I have yet to be on the side of the road with a flat with the 4 season, I have buying them for years! I highly recommend them .

My riding buddies and I use this tire in a 25 mm size for all season riding. It is durable and Bike Tires Direct definitely offers the best price out there. We keep several on hand to ensure there is no downtime.

First time needing new tires on my Cannondale Quick2 that I use for moderate rides 15-50 miles, usually a combo of paved path and hard gravel. I wanted something lightweight but sturdy against punctures, and with a lighter tread. This is seeming to fill the bill quite nicely. Mounted easily.

Very responsive and durable tire.

Best tires

Only had very short time as tire size for a 700x32 was actually a 34 as per my measurement. Had to return as clearance at front fork was too close and would cause debris to get stuck..Also , very hard riding..

Pretty fast, pretty light, pretty flat resistant, lasts a long time. My other bike has Conti Grand Prix 25c, but on this bike the 4-seasons never feel slow. Great tire.

Good but not great

These are great tires. I buy them every year in the off-season sales. High performing and durable tires. Even in the times you ride them down to the threads they get you home. OK, the tires and a dollar bill as a boot. New Continental 4 Seasons are a safe bet starting any grand randonee.

I was a regular gator skin user until I tried the grand prix-four seasons tire. More grip than the gator skin with not too much more drag due to extra tread. Awesome, smooth riding, quality Continental tire that is extremely durable. Definitely will be my go to tire moving forward. Always was and will remain a Conti tire guy. Love the quality.
