The Continental WinterContact TS 860 tyres are very quiet.The generate definitely a lower noise than my previous Fulda Kristal I dont know how are they doing on ice because I didt have an opportunity to test them in winter conditions.

The used tyres are the Continental WinterContact TS 860 195/65 R15 T91 with the label: C - rolling resistance, B - braking on wet, volume - 72 dB. The tyres are probably quieter than the EU label says. On a wet surface, there is a slight slip when starting faster. Rolling resistance is class C and there is actually more fuel consumption than when using class B tyres. The high profile (65) and the T speed index (120 mph) are noticeable at highway speeds and lateral winds.

Winter in 2017/18 wasn’t hard, but it was snowing few times. From the winter tyre, above all, the good snow grip is expected. Unfortunately, several times I was braking on the snow at low speed and I did not see any difference between this tyre and the others I had before - eg Fulda. I would expect more after the premium class, and as I wrotethe deference was very small if not no noticeable difference.

They were, are and will be my favorite winter tyres ... until they will be changed with a fancy tread or my B5 will fall apart. I would recommend!

Good tyres, but rather closer to the universal type than a winter tyre in my opinion. There are no good tyres for the ice, but they also lose grip on the snow with my light car. Rather for heavier cars alike Audi.
