Continental SSR Tires

SSR stands for SelfSupportingRunflat Tire

The SSR principle:

Unlike conventional tires, the SSR principle is based on a reinforced self-supporting sidewall. This prevents the inside of the tire from getting pinched between the road and the rim and from slipping into the rim well in the event of a loss of inflation. The SSR's reinforced sidewall enables the car to continue on its way at a maximum speed of 80 km/h (50 mph) for up to 80 km (50 miles), depending on road conditions and vehicle weight.

SSR runflat tires offer crucial advantages

• With SSR tires you remain mobile in the event of a flat tire
• You can reach your destination or tire service facility without the bother of having to replace a flat tire with the spare tire
• Compatible with standard rims
• Simple mounting
• Saves room and weight, and thus fuel, giving you as much as 3 cubic feet more cargo area
