I use the conti grand prix 4 season tires in the early part of the cycling season. It's my go to tire when there's still a fair bit of winter sand and debris on the roads. These tires also perform very well in wet conditions. By the first week in June I switch over to standard grand prix 4000's.

Ride is good wear seems to be good. No punctures for all winter on trash roads!!
Difficult to mount when new.
Review by Joe Bob
This is a great, fast-riding, excellent handling light touring tire. Using it on my aluminum Trek for supported touring rides. It's not the cheapest tire out there, but it works for my need and has high puncture resistance.

28mm for winter riding on a carbon cyclocross.
Review by NYC Commuter
I've ridden these about 5,000 miles in suburban and urban commuting now with a total of 3 flats, two of which were valve problems so not the tires' fault. Also a couple of century rides on them. They're a little expensive but overall a great deal in light of their durability and worry-free performance.

I have ridden this tire for at least two years and have had one flat. Wears and rides well. Would recomend this tire without reservation.

After 800 flat-less miles in Seattle winter road conditions these tires show very little wear. My front tire still has some of the center-line mold material visible. They're a good weight for off-season race training and have very good grip in wet conditions.

This is the best tire for training. It is safe long lasting, confortable

I put these tires on as the weather turns cold. They provide better grip in the wet conditions, and also with all of the sand and salt on the roads. Not the cheapest tire, but worth the money.
Review by cromnuts
This tire really smooths out all kinds of road surfaces and makes for long pleasant rides. With Continentals puncture resistence I never worry about flats out in the middle of no-where.
The only possible negative is they tend to ware a little more rapidly than some other tires.

Switched from the Gatorskins to 4 Seasons in spring. Made our tandem handle better and perform great
Ride quality was also improved
Review by Objektifier
Been using these tires year round for several years. A great compromise between the GP 4000 and Gatorskins, you get the suppleness and feel of the 4000s with the puncture resistance of Gatorskins. Well worth the extra money.

I've only been running this tire for 400 miles, but they're great so far - no flats after rolling over plenty of glass. They're a bit heavy but worth it for the flat protection. They also have pretty good traction on wet roads. Great tire for Oregon winters!
Review by NorCal Roadie
I have ridden the roads on Continental tires for many years, and I feel that they make a great product. In my experience, their tires seem to wear quite well and resist flats, letting me spend more time riding and less time swapping tires & patching tubes. I recently bought a heavier hybridcommuter road bike that can use wider tires, but was unhappy with the tires that came with the bike. (The tread wore out very quickly, and anything sharper than a marshmallow seemed to poke right through them!) So I decided to try a pair of Grand Prix 4-Seasons, and have been happy with the perormance so far. And while I do appreciate the quality product, I just wish they were priced a little more reasonably. If I were ever to put on a new one of these tires, and then cut it shortly thereafter by hitting a road hazard, I might actually shed tears of financial anguish....

These Continental GP Four Season tires are the best I have ever had the experience with. I will purchase none other as long as these are available. They are exellent for repelling flats. They have a very tough liner that prevents piercings from thorns, nails etc. I have pulled several out of the tires with no leakeage. They hold very well in the corners and provide a very quiet smooth ride.

Just rode over 1100 miles from Santa Fe New Mexico to New Franklin Missouri on our tandem this September and while lots of the other riders had problems with flats on there single bikes these tires were able to weather everything that the trip threw our way. For tandem use I wouldn't recommend going smaller than a 700x28.

Tires grip the road and are a smooth ride. I've had them on now for a few hundred miles and no problems.
Had Kenda Kriterium tires and was constantly getting flats.
Review by bwhite
I ride all year in all conditions, rain, cold, dark, bad road conditions and these tires perform wonderfully in all conditions.
