Continental ContiWinterContact TS800 - User reviews

I bought the Continental ContiWinterContact TS800 tyres here at Oponeo last year. I was looking for something not that cheap and I based my search on the opinions available here as well. I was looking for a good brand so I chose Continentals. I am very pleased with the purchase. The whole process of placing an order on-line is astonishingly good. Something about the tyres, though. At the beginning I haven’t had too many opportunities to test their performance (is was rather dry). And so I waited for the first snow and had to wait until new year’s eve. I knew they were good both on wet and dry tarmac, but it wasn’t until I had a chance to drive on snow and icy roads when I saw that paying a few extra pounds was a right choice. Obviously, in such conditions you don’t drive like if it was dry but still I didn’t expect such grip. The Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 offers safety and good control over the car. I think I can easily recommend them to anyone. They may be a bit louder than summer tyres but I would say that it depends on the actual size of the tyre. I can’t really assess the abrasion or the rolling resistance, yet. As for me, I have no complains.

Never in my life have I had such good winter tyres. Just a revelation. If someone has a problem between the Continental Michelin beats her on the head.

Very good handling and cornering grip. Excellent traction on snow and ice. High resistance to slush. A unique fun running in dry conditions at temperatures below zero. Unfortunately, the way it is, but it was worth the buy.

Tires behave well on wet and dry roads, the mud slip a little worse but this is normal. Tires for the ordinary user. Recommend

I was delighted with the price at which I was able to buy new Continental ContiWinterContact TS800 in stock. Unfortunately, the very first winter was shocking because I have been so many times stuck in snowdrifts. And from season to season getting worse: moves and leaves badly from the drifts. Undoubtedly the biggest advantage of them is the braking distance: it stops almost like a 'summer on dry asphalt'; but mind that one might not have so good tyres at your back :) I am riding other tires and comparing them to Continental ContiWinterContact TS800 is not worth it. I recommend the tyres as far as they are brand new.
