The Continental story

Continental is a German tire manufacturer founded in 1871, headquartered in Hanover. They are the OEM supplier for BMW, Audi, Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, and Volkswagen performance vehicles, giving them intimate knowledge of modern European platform requirements. Continental's technology includes proprietary rubber compounds optimized for European road conditions, sidewall designs engineered for responsive handling feel, and tread patterns optimized for both wet weather performance and on-track capability.

Continental is renowned for run-flat tire technology (RFT), which allows vehicles to continue driving for up to 80 km even after tire puncture—a feature standard on many BMW, Mercedes, and Audi M-Sport models. Their PremiumContact, SportContact, and ContiSportContact lines deliver progressive performance across daily driving, spirited weekend drives, and track use. All-season options balance performance with seasonal adaptability for Canadian driving conditions. Grip, precision steering feel, and tire life are engineered into each fitment.

At Foreign Automotive in Kitchener-Waterloo, we stock and fit Continental tires for BMW, Audi, Porsche, Mercedes, and Volkswagen platforms. Our technicians set up tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) correctly for each platform and verify balance and alignment to optimize handling and tire life. We serve customers from Cambridge, Guelph, Hamilton, and the GTA with expert consultation on tire selection for your specific driving style and seasonal needs. All tire installations include TPMS programming and our 24-month labour warranty.

Continental — frequently asked

Common questions from Continental customers across Kitchener-Waterloo, Cambridge, Guelph, and the GTA. Don't see yours? Call us at (519) 894-9551.

What's the difference between SportContact and PureContact tires?
SportContact tires are summer performance tires optimized for grip and handling. PureContact tires are all-season tires balanced for comfort, efficiency, and year-round use. Choose SportContact for performance; PureContact for versatility.
How long do Continental tires last?
Continental all-season and summer tires typically last 40,000-60,000 miles. Winter tires last 40,000-60,000 miles. Actual lifespan depends on driving conditions and style.
Are Continental tires good for winter driving?
Continental makes excellent winter tires engineered for snow and ice. Dedicated winter tires are strongly recommended for Ontario winters over all-seasons.
What size tires fit my car?
Tire size is determined by your factory specification (visible on the door jamb) and wheel size. We'll recommend the correct Continental size for your vehicle.
Do you offer tire balancing and TPMS programming?
Yes — fitting includes mounting, balancing, and TPMS reprogramming. Your tires will be balanced and ready to drive.
Can you repair punctured Continental tires?
Yes — we repair repairable punctures. Sidewall damage and large punctures require replacement.
What about tire rotation?
We recommend rotation every 10,000-15,000 miles to promote even wear and extend tire life.
Do you serve customers outside Kitchener-Waterloo?
Yes — we fit Continental tires for customers from Cambridge, Guelph, Hamilton, and the GTA. We also ship tires Canada-wide for installation elsewhere.
