Continental Grand Prix 4000s Tire

Black Chili compound gives the Grand Prix 4000s road racing tire the best combination of sticky grip, low rolling resistance, and tread life that Continental has to offer. Black Chili rubber uses nanotechnology to enhance the contact surface of the Grand Prix 4000s in corners, rather than using a super-soft compound that slows you down in the straights and wears out too quickly. Vectran Breaker fabric provides a layer of lightweight puncture protection.

Bottom Line: Crush the curves and bullet the straights with Black Chili rubber on your rims.
