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

I've been commuting on these for a couple of months now, about 150 milesweek, and have nothing but praise for these tires. Relatively light weight, rock solid performance, and a sense of security that I won't flat in the middle of the international district at 0-dark-thirty. They are fast enough to leave on for quick group rides on weekends too.

I use these 28c tires on my disc-brake cyclocross commuter bike for my 20 mile commute from the Bronx to Manhattan in NYC. I like to ride fast, and I hate the typical heavy, slow commuter tires. These tires feel more like my race tires, but repel the broken glass and soak up the bumps of the mean streets. I've been using these tires for about 2 months, and haven't had a flat yet. Definite recommendation!

Have 2,400 miles on these tires over varied terrain all 4 seasons without a puncture. Plan on rotating and putting new tubes in just in case. Hard downhilling, light gravel, puncture vine country, rough chip seal and a few unintended off-road trips without any problems. How could you beat it?

These tires I found to be an excellent, mid-range price tire. Sure, you can go out and purchase a more expensive tire, but if you are riding to be in shape and even to get to a high level or recreational use, these tires are for you. I couldn't be more pleased, and I certainly don't want to spend the money I would have to spend to see if I could be more pleased. I save that for when I start serious racing competition.

Been using these tires for several years & they have held up to the worst the Northeast winter and spring can throw at them. I've also used them in Gran Fondo's, touring and other event rides, as they are reliable and lessens the hassle about picking up debris and flatting. Extremely smooth rolling as well. Would I recommend these, you bet.

These are wonderful tires. I have used them on multiple two week bike trips without a flat. I ride 28s and if they measured 28, I would give them 5 stars. Deducting 1 star for only measuring 26 on Velocity Aerohead rims.

I replace a pair of Bontrager Allweather Plus tires which were not very good in the wet. The GP 4 Season was easy to install and it was immediately apparent these tires run small-700x28c is more like 25 width. In fact they are slightly smaller than the Michelin Pro4 SC 700x25c (which I'm told runs large) on my other bike. No matter, that makes for great rolling and these tires are super grippy on dry and wet. Too early to tell about puncture resistance but so far so good.

Durable and good traction.

I have just over 600 miles on these tires now and no flats!! I have the 700 x 25, and they ride very smooth. I've always purchased the Continental Gatorskins. Those tires were O.K., and I'd get an occasional flat with them, but I really like the Grand Prix 4-Season with Vectran much better!! The Gatorskins are a smooth tire without any treads, while the 4-Season has treads to give you more grip in case of rain and road debris. I might me a bit slower with the 4-Season tires, but I don't race and am along to enjoy the ride.

My Father-in-law, a wife and I only use these tires. They provide a great mix of traction, performance and longevity. Putting over 2000 miles a year on my bike I have never gotten a flat with these Continentals! Even hitting rumble strips going 45mph they held up and protected the tubes. I would recommend replacing them annually as you will see the tread wear after a few thousand miles and the stiffness also decline through heavy use.

I use the GP 4-Season for fast recreational riding and commuting in the a fallwinter cold and wet weather as a replacement tire for the Conti 4000S. The tires have an excellent ride and great traction even on wet pavement. All of the Continental tires have very good puncture resistance but the 4-Season tires have been clearly better per mile. Especially given the fact that during the winter avoiding glass and road debris is a challenge in the darkness of early morning or evening. Overall they have a secure and comfortable ride and give up little as high performance road tire. If frame clearance permits the 700x25 are recommended over the 700x23 as the ride quality and puncture resistance is better.

The only tire for any season!!

All around rider of top-line equipment, I appreciate the durability and QC of all Conti's. Ride quality is superb. I still prefer smaller 23/25c tires for my road riding, but I don't hesitate to use these on the many dirt/gravel/rail sections which are parts of my usual loops.

My new(er) bike's tires were pretty tired. I DO NOT want a flat because I pushed the life of the tires that came on the bike. The Cont. Grand Prix are tight on the corners and smooth on the straightaways. Mine are 28mm because I'm a serious recreational rider.

I'm a one-bike guy so I need tires that allow me to commute in urban areas without constant flats AND keep up on longer road rides. After trying a few different tires, I've found these to best hit that sweet spot. They aren't the lightest, but they also aren't that heavy. I've been very happy with them and riding more confidently without flats since making the switch.

Love this tire for its durability and performance.

Have several hundred miles on them now and they are sticky and roll well

These are my go-to tires for all around riding. Tires are super durable. I ride 28c for additional comfort.

Great price, perfect quality, durable.

I bought Conti Grand Prix 4-season tires to replace Panaracers in a 700cx32mm size. I really liked the Panaracers, but wanted something more durable. I was concerned that the Grand Prix would be too harsh, but my concern was unfounded. The may not be as cushy as the soft sidewall Panaracers, but they arent bad at all, and the Conti duraskin sidewall seems tough. Traction is better than expected in loose stuff and dry cornering. They have about 400 miles on them, and tread wear seems good so far.
