Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 - User reviews

I travel quite a lot, especially on good roads - European motorways with Audi A6 car with a powerful petrol engine. The vehicle has a lightweight sports character, which takes full advantage. Winter tyres, which is mentioned, Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 premium-class tyres with speed V (up to 240km / h) theoretically should meet my requirements. And did it. But I’ll start from the beginning. After the first kilometers traveled after your purchase I was pleasantly surprised by the properties of the tyre. Excellent grip on dry roads, the wet - also great, the tyre was definitely quieter than the other used until now by me. Winter 2014/15 as we all remember not abound in the snow, and I had no opportunity to fully test its winter properties. The whole car behaves perfect. Of course recommend this tyre, and the shipment from OPONEO. I had no problems with purchasing. The wet grip is excellent and the tyre perfoms very well in the deep snow. Last winter I had Debicas and there is no comparison. Continentals – as a premium brand- beats it well. The price is also a bargain. I can honestly recommend Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 to all of the drivers who like to feel safe on the road in winter.

I did some tires. 4tys. km. Really good tires, but on the ice once surprised me. On the other car I have Dębice frigo and for normal to 120km / h do not see the difference. I used them in the East Polish, just this winter was wetter than snowy.

Very nice tires, excellent for dry conditions and snow, a little worse with wet and icy road. Very quiet. Driven more than 10 000 km.

Tires recommendable. No sliding on the snow and fence pośniegowym. Driving in the snow uphill and "serpentine" not requiring the use of chains. Well hold on to the road.

Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 are fitted to Volvo v50 2.0D and behaves very good on wet and snowy roads, poorly on dry. The soft blend makes the car to run a little uneasy, especially when overtaking. Quieter than Summer ContiSportContact 5, fuel consumption higher by about 0.2, but it is a matter of lower temperatures. As a disadvantage that causes more of them do not buy this poor sidewall tyres despite the high profile 205/55 May two front tyres on the side of small cracks probably formed when they enter the hole. Previously on Bridgestone Blizzak I did about 3 seasons without any damage, were weaker for Conti in the snow, but driving on the roads cleared of snow much much better (almost like in the summer). Conti is good for a quiet ride in less of cleared areas of the country :)

For tyres drove about 6000 thousand. miles mainly on motorways in Germany. On the dry and the wet car led confident. At high speed it is heard, but the noise in the limit of reason. I would recommend to anyone.

Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 is doing good in each situation: on mud or in snow. The only issue I’ve noticed with the tyre is moving on wet with temperatures above 0 degrees. However, I still have the same issue with my summer tyres – maybe it’s due to my technique and higher torque. Comparing to my recent tyres ( Nokian WR ) Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 is way better. Braking was smooth, sure and without fear. I don’t judge fuel consumption as I have driven not enough to notify any problems.

The tire holds well on wet and dry roads. When it comes to driving on snow, it holds great laterally, and has a mean inhibition. The wet awful howling. Raises a lot of water which is her forte.
