About Continental ContiSportContact 5 MO 325/35 R22 110Y

Wet-Road Performance

The tyre carries an A wet-grip rating in the documented specification, indicating strong wet-road braking performance. Its performance-oriented tread construction is designed to maintain road contact and directional stability when driving on wet surfaces.

Wet Braking

The A wet-grip classification places this specification in the highest EU wet-braking category. This is particularly relevant for a high-performance 325/35 R22 tyre where controlled braking and steering response are important.

Dry-Road Handling

The wide 325 mm footprint and low 35-series sidewall support precise steering response and high-speed stability. The ContiSportContact 5P technical specification for this exact size is rated Y and carries a 240/AA/A UTQG classification.

Ride Comfort and Noise

The documented EU specification has an external rolling-noise value of 74 dB with noise class B. As a low-profile performance tyre, it prioritizes handling and high-speed stability over the softer ride characteristics normally associated with taller sidewalls.

Rolling Resistance

The documented EU label for the exact 325/35ZR22 110Y MO specification gives a D rolling-resistance rating. This reflects its performance-oriented construction rather than an economy-focused tyre design.

Summer Road Use

This is a summer performance tyre intended for warm-weather road use. It is designed for dry and wet paved roads and is not intended as a winter or all-season tyre.

Load Capacity

The 110 load index corresponds to a maximum load of 1,060 kg per tyre. This high load rating makes the specification suitable for heavy, powerful premium vehicles when the size and load requirement match the vehicle manufacturer's recommendation.

Y Speed Rating

The Y speed rating indicates a maximum rated speed of 300 km/h under the applicable testing conditions. The 110Y combination is intended for high-performance applications where both load capacity and high-speed capability are required.

Vehicle Compatibility

The MO marking identifies Mercedes-Benz approval. The exact 325/35ZR22 110Y specification is documented as a Mercedes-Benz-approved fitment. Vehicle-specific compatibility should always be checked against the manufacturer's approved tyre size, axle position and load requirements.
