Runflat tyres from Continental

Continental Runflat SSR Tyres SSR stands for SelfSupportingRunflat Tyre |

The SSR principle: Unlike conventional tyres, the SSR principle is based on a reinforced, self-supporting sidewall. This prevents the inside of the tyre from getting crushed 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 50 mph for up to 50 miles, depending on road conditions and vehicle weight. |

Communication between tyre and driver Because of the good riding comfort SSR tyres afford, drivers hardly notice any pressure loss in the event of a puncture; to increase both safety in the event of a puncture and performance during normal driving, the SSR system is supplied together with an inflation warning system – either TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) or DDS (Deflation Detection System), both of which were likewise developed by Continental. These warning systems alert the driver when a drop in inflation pressure requires investigation via a display on the instrument panel.
