Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 - User reviews

Translation

After winter tires is satisfactory, although the winter was not particularly heavy. They are fairly quiet and with a small (I think) rolling resistance, fuel consumption has not increased over the summer. Despite a fairly aggressive driving, braking is certain, and cornering the tires are maintained very well. On previous tires (Pirelli Winter) przejeździłem 8 seasons without fear and I hope the e-Continental will also be durable.

This is an ideal tire for snow, a little noisy, braking on wet to dry as decent. How were the new car a little snooping on the way. Total good tires.

I had these for 28k miles and they lasted well given that they are a winter tyre and designed for colder conditions. Noise was moderate and grip in wet conditions good, I didn't have a chance to test them in snow or ice as we had none last year. I would recommend these as a good tyre for the price and quite durable, the shoulders wear first on these so early rotation is necessary.

I bought a tire because of good reviews in many tests, I wanted a little run in the snow and slush, and even in these conditions the tire performs well. My only comment to this tire is the noise level in the wet, while traveling through a wet asphalt whether in the city or on the road noise is unacceptable. Compared to the Michelin Alpin A5 Continental falls far worse. Previously I had Nokian Snowtech 2 and honestly all I do not recommend this particular tire model - in all conditions bad. My next choice would certainly Vredestein.

Tire generally very decent, holds good in the corners, do not bother too much inequality. The problem is being braked, can surprise me abs-em sometimes absurd situation (both the minimum and the standard speeds - aggressive driving as reject here, able to go to work abs chew all), making braking quite risky and unpredictable. I happened interchangeably driving cars on native Fridge, who better to inhibit the in and out of deep snow, but easier to lose grip in curves and on Alpine Michelin, which in both Fridge and Conti for me to leave behind. The opinion of the tire seems to rest on a drive after a complete renovation of the suspension and brakes so that the problems with the tires rather do not affect the technical condition of the car :)

Tires on snow and generally not suitable for use in temperate or below 7C when there is no snow on the roads. It must be just wet to dry when used up at an alarming rate. Overall I would recommend.

Tires mounted on Volvo V50 2.0D. Very good performance on wet and snowy, poor on dry roads sometimes surprises a slight shift. The soft blend makes the car runs a little uncomfortable, especially when overtaking. Quieter summer ContiSportContact 5, burning more than about 0.2, but it is a question of lower temperatures. In less that causes many of them do not buy this poor tire sidewall despite high 205/55 on May 2 front tires on the side of small cracks probably formed when they enter the hole. Previously on Bridgestone Blizzak przejeździłem 3 seasons without damage, were lower for Conti in the snow, but driving on plowed roads much better (almost like a summer). Conti good for a quiet walk in less deforested areas of the country :) I did not buy more of them.

Overall a good tire at a decent price, but after the company expected more. Pulls hard especially on wet roads after rain. However, driving on ice and packed snow - I was expecting more after these opnach. Ultimately, the company is committed brand. Generally, no nuts.
