Overall reflect what is expected of a tire Continental: good grip on each fund, long-distance, low noise level.

Had same type on my Citroen C5 tourer as all-year round tyres - easily still winter-class tread after 30,000 miles. These newer lower profile run-flats ar on my Citroen C6 - a BIG HEAVY car. Trip to French Alps in soft and packed snow showed them superior in grip/control compared to those in chains - no problems anywhere. Bit noisier than the ones on my C5 but then lower profile and run-flats so expected Drive a lot in UK on motoways below 7deg C so get a lot of testing on cold weather suitability - wouldn't drive on anything else (I keep them on all year - get good treadwear even so). Deep tread superb for the water-covered skid pan also known as the (Merseyside) M62...

Completed 45,000 miles and they look like they have at least 25,000 left in them. Did intended to change back to summer tyres but no need. Good grip all year. Easy to get 63 mpg with them, so no fuel penalty. Also put them on my xtrail now and pleased with them on that vehicle too

I follow the Continental for years and tests are always among the best. This is the second winter train that I purchased; the former were the TS790.

I spent a lot of time reading reports and researching which tyres would be best for my BMW in winter especially as I was working well outside of town in a countryside area prone to snow and non-gritted roads in winter with some steep inclines on the route so the potential for difficulty in winter was high. When the snow did come I can only say I was so pleased with the results as I steadily made my way up a 1in4 looking at all the cars that were struggling or had just been abandoned by the roadside waiting for someone to pull them out... even the idiot in the Audi A4 trying to skate uphill on the wrong side of the road into oncoming, downhill traffic round a blind corner because the snow build up appeared lighter on the other side... (I often wonder what happened to him) All in all brilliant tyres in snow, slush and just cold & wet conditions. MPG suffered slightly as you'd expect but thats a fair trade off for safer handling and improved road holding. I probably left them on a bit too long after the winter and in warmer, dry conditions they are are too soft and MPG and handling took a real hammering but then that's not what they're designed for. Winter performance was so good I'm almost looking forward to next winter just so I can have a chuckle at all the people who can't be bothered to switch to winter tyres.

great traction in the wet, especially at junctions and roundabouts, good in the snow, slightly soft vague feeling on long sweeping corners, but overall excellent tyre will be using them again.

Continental ContiWinterContact TS830 P very good snow tyre. Pretty predictable. I think that it is the best snow tyre position available on the market at the moment.It provided me with a good stability, good comfort and with decent grip on snowy tarmac. I have to say that for now Continental ContiWinterContact TS830 P seems to be quite ok. They do not surprise me in dangerous situations so I am confident and safe while driving in winter conditions. I do recommend Continental ContiWinterContact TS830 P .
