The Continental Grand Prix 4000S has developed a reputation as one of the best race tyres available – and rightly so. Continental’s BlackChili compound is fast and supple but retains an impressive level of puncture resistance for a race tyre. This second generation Continental Grand Prix 4000S II has been updated to incorporate a broader range of sizes to reflect the trend towards wider tyres, with 20mm (185g), 23mm (215g), 25mm (225g) and 28mm (260g) rubber available. Racing tyres no longer have to be super-skinny.
