My car is Skoda Octavia TSI 150HP. I drove on ContiWinterContact TS850 whole winter season ( about 3000miles ) and I have to say that I am under a big impression. First of all on snow and wet snow my car acted superbly, very good grip. I was convinced by ADAC reviews, even due to the lack of private opinions cuz the tyre is quite new. Tread maybe not as fancy as Michelin's but that's not what it is all about.

After two weeks from having them fitted they saved me from having quite a crash. Outstanding grip in snow and very good braking in wet. It's worth paying a little extra for Continental ContiWinterContact TS850.

Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 is the best tyre I have ever had. Bought them in Germany in march 2012, as a brand new release. Tested them in Alps and no matter if it's wet, icy or dry they are perfect. Especially when compared to Semperits I had before. My car: Audi A2.

This model uses a tire in the third car. They are optimal in terms of keeping in difficult conditions and comfort on of cleared routes. In my opinion the best parameters have version 16calowej (205). 17nastki (225) heard harder, but the grip on wet and dry is maintained at the highest level and that's the most important. Another advantage is very correct damping inequality, what rozjeżdżonych spring roads always helps.

I'd buy a second time. Super tire. Very good road holding in all weather conditions prevailing during the Polish winter. High comfort, do not make noise strongly. They do not cause an increase of combustion. Really recommendable.

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.
