i can’t trcommend these tyres highly enough for winter use. The snow from early 2018 was a true test for the Continentals, and they performed perfectly. The car could be driven in thick falling snow with very little detriment to grip and handling. Other cars were grinding to a halt or couldn’t even grip the snow, whereas I could continue my journey as nornal. If you value the lives of your family then you should get some winter tyres - below 7 degrees these tyres out perform summer tyres in nearly every way. In the snow they’re virtually unstoppable. The difference between summer and winter tyres on snow is like the difference between day and night, it really is that clear. If you’re never tried them and can afford to do so then I highly recommend winter tyres, and these Continentals in particular.

Not much more to say than if you want a good all-round winter tyre they're pretty good. some noticeable hum from them, and in the dry they can oversteer a bit when pushed around tight bends, but on wet - brilliant and in the snow, well you can just drive anywhere. Absolutely recommended.

The tires did not give me any problems. In autumn they were planted and taken down in spring. Trouble-free. Keep it up.

I would recommend Continental. Good quality, good grip I have no objection. These are very good tyres, I was surprised positively several times. Tyres behave very well I fully recommend these tyres and I will buy once again. Very good grip, tyres are safe and handles well. Surprisingly short, and equal braking in all conditions. It was a present from my girlfriend, but I would 100% buy these tyres again, they look like new after 4 months, which is important. I'm going for them again and I would highly recommend.

When i bought this tyre I was hoping for a more comfortable ride through the snow, especially during thaw. With the help of ESP and ABS sytems they are dealing with the most demaning weather conditions.. The tyres doing well in dry and wet condition. Aquaplaning absolutely sporadic. I have the impression that the greater cold this tyre perform better.
