Continental ContiWinterContact TS860 225/45 R17 91H

The Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 raises the bar for winter tyre performance to new heights. In total, she won almost 50 times on the podium for the best winter tyres. At the end of 2015, the new generation TS860 was rolled out to replace the most titled German tyre.

"Split personality"

The Continental ContiWinterContact TS860 combines the character traits of both European and Nordic winter tyres. The new model demonstrates responsiveness in handling on dry and wet pavement, excellent traction and clear reactions to steering turns in slush, excellent grip on icy roads. At the same time, the tyre captivates with a high level of driving comfort.

The tread of the model is made of proprietary Cool Chili compound with a high content of silica and the addition of special resins to maintain rubber elasticity over a wide temperature range. The directional arrangement of the tread blocks allows the tyre to remove water and melted snow from the contact patch without much thought, preventing the risk of hydroplaning, and the dense sipe blocking increases the stability of the tyre on snowy roads.

Technological "chips"

The Continental ContiWinterContact TS860 did not do without technological “gadgets”. One of them is special grooves in the walls of the SnowCurve tread blocks, which act as guarantors of improved grip on snow. The second technology guarding the safety of trips in the cold season is additional drainage grooves inside the tread blocks (Liquid Layer Drainage). They dry the contact patch when moving on ice, thereby reducing the braking distance. Is a car tyre worth the money? Definitely yes. After all, after a close acquaintance with her, purely positive impressions remain.
