I chose these tires because they were recommended by the magazine. They were excellent in very poor conditions of snow and ice. We live in a remote area of ​​the Scottish Highlands.

Very happy to have winters equipped. After much research to 850 Continental after many positive reviews. My wife had to slam on the wet and she called me to thank me for winter tires and I had some Dingbat overtaking on the wrong side of the road in the wet and dark and hit the brakes and prevented an accident. I think the tires have helped tremendously in that time. Wear seems to be very good. I'm much more confident driving in ice No snow at all to give this comparison but I do not doubt at all, they would be excellent after the first impressions. I found Oponeo the cheapest and they arrived at the specified time.

Continental Winter Contact TS accounts 850 are excellent winter tires. dry eyes of the summer. precise steering, good lateral grip. In the wet only at high speeds, they suffer some aquaplaning (over 120 km / h). In corners and on roundabouts are more than satisfactory. The snow is exceptional both on the road to the city and the mountain roads, excellent braking discrete motor skills (although I have a tune without traction control). I tested the fast lane on the Brenner motorway under intense snow no problem sealing and braking.

This tire is extremely durable. I got it from my previous car (fiat) that is now put on the spot. Meanwhile, four output seasons (15 000 km per year incl. Summer tires) are more profile about 5 mm. Make some extra fuel consumption. Thin strip. And I will definitely use continental replacement. In different tire tests came to be one of the best forward. They cost a couple cents more than the cheapest version. But they are more than worth their money.

Firstly, I wanted to buy Firestone WinterHawk 1 but these are not being manufactured anymore. That is why I kept on searching for tyres with a similar tread. I chose Continental ContiWinterContact TS850. I have been using them for one winter season and I am satisfied with their quality. The tyres are quiet and I have an impression that the car drives better than on my summer Dunlops. The driving is quiet and comfortable and very safe in snow. I have never had problems on road with these tyres. They provide really good grip even if you drive a diesel with a high torque on a roundabout, They are great in rainy weather but I think they are a bit louder in wet conditions (I would not say it is a drawback - it is rather normal). When it comes to pure ice roads, it is obvious that only the snow tyres with spikes would be useful there. However, I have not noticed any signs of wear on the tyres. They could have been a bit cheaper but still the price is quite reasonable. The fuel consumption has not changed significantly. Generally speaking it is a pleasure to drive a car on these tyres. I recommend them to everyone who drives often in the city. I have tyres with the T speed rating (up to 118 mph) and I have driven on them with the max. speed of 130 mph. I have not experienced any vibrations or noise at all. It is simply luxe:)
