A tire blowout can be a nightmare. If a nail punctures your tire on the highway at a speed of 130 km/h, simply driving on as usual would be unthinkable. If the tire loses pressure, the sidewall can get caught between the rim and the road, causing the tire to tear away from the rim. Ideally there are no serious consequences and the tire must simply be replaced. Prefer to avoid this hassle? Then you need a tire with ContiSeal Technology.

Tires with ContiSeal technology contain a thick, sticky layer of sealant inside which immediately seals off a puncture. At least 80% of all tire punctures up to a maximum diameter of 5 millimeters can be sealed almost immediately. The result: you keep moving, and you don\x{2019}t have to change the tire right away. Of course, you should have the tire examined by a qualified technician when you can. In case of a possible loss of air pressure when using tires with Seal Technology, the manufacturer recommends using a tire pressure control system.
You'll recognize tires with ContiSeal Technology by a symbol on the sidewall. No special rims are necessary to mount these tires. They are available in summer and winter versions in many sizes from 16-21 inches, and they can be driven up to 300 km/h (according to their speed rating), since there are no speed or mileage limits for ContiSeal tires. This is a clear advantage over conventional Run-Flat tires. And so, a number of car manufacturers like Volkswagen, BMW, and Seat are now factory-equipping certain models with ContiSeal tires.
