I’ve bought Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 from Oponeo in October 2013. I’ve driven 8000 miles since then and wasn’t disappointed a single time. The mileage I’m doing I felt safe and sound. Since this year’s winter never came I could test them on every road. Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 are silent and stick to every road superbly. I recommend those tyres to everybody who values safety and comfort the most!

My car, a Vectra C with the 2.0 DTI. Unfortunately, I had no opportunity to check them on the snow. I drove a little, so I find it hard to talk about their durability. Installation and toe without any problem. While driving any fight, even at 130km / h. On a slippery surface very correct behavior on the water too well. For now I'm happy with the choice. I made the choice based on the opinion of friends. If I had to choose again, I would choose the same.

This year there was so much snow and I can not say 100 percent as tire but what drove it seems to me that it is ok and I would recommend living in the mountains and I had no problems this winter to go somewhere where

Tires made about 5000 km. Driving experience - very positive. Earlier in the winter I would for the GY 4seasons and were quite good, despite the fact that it was all season tyres. However, in most toured in the city. Due to the fact that I knew what is waiting for me this year (field trips), I decided to buy Continental ContiWinterContact TS850, I have them in size 195/65 R15. As for rolling resistance, I noticed no increase in combustion. Having contact with the snow - zero problems, slush - like the tracks, the wet roadway - no aquaplaning, good braking distance. However, the ice-covered road driving is a disappointment, vehicle inhibited on these tyres without a long slip of the speed of 85 km / h (admittedly with ABS, but this is ice). It is really worth to buy these tyres.

Very good tires, very well behaved on dry and wet roads ... basically ASC does not break traction with the rapid traction even on wet (290 km). The problem is the so-called "flattening tires", for example, if your car will stand for 3-4 days in the garage, while driving it will take some 30 km to stop vibrations to be felt on the steering wheel (tire soft). after about 10000km you hear the roaring of tires on a smooth surface (eg garage) at a speed of 30 km ... I recommend tire

Very good tires, they go well hold the road (wet / dry / mud). Ridden mostly on the highway, they are not terrible speeds above 140km / h. Tires have one drawback - they are quite loud especially around 90-100km / h, acceleration is the feeling of starting the engine turbojet (whistle of the boost frequencies) :) most felt on the concrete. But, this is not a big drawback - I would buy them again!

Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 are performing superbly on both wet and dry conditions. Great in snow. I had the opportunity to test it during this year's winter attack and the famous Xavier. Snowdrifts and blizzards way that I was able to ride onthese tyres is simply a measure of performance for these tires. When others were stuck in the snow I calmly drove on without a problem. I just saw the look of some drivers who had to push and I went without support. I highly recommend. I had Kristal Fulda Montero 3 but Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 are much better. I would recommend them to all undecided. Apparently winter is behind us but another driver does not save on tires to just buy and enjoy safe driving. Driving with that knowledge that we have in midfield during the winter adventures is essential.

My friend made me to buy Continental ContiWinterContactTS850, which are neither cheap nor equipped with an interesting tread pattern. Tyre is very detailed but it doesn’t make it more than a piece of rubber.It was put on my car in September after using the old tyres to maximum. Suddenly, the ride began quiet and comfortable. And so it remained even in low temperatures. The tyre sticks to road in dry or wet conditions. I live in a neighbourhood where you need to get rid of snow on your own. The car has to be capable of riding at snow, mud and ice. That’s the right tyre! I recommend to spend couple of additional pounds extra and buy them. Continental ContiWinterContactTS850 is capable of lasting 4-5 seasons and the difference from the cheapest Continental tyre is £25.
