Continental WinterContact TS860 is based on modified blend called "Cool Chili", which contains a lot of silica. The result is much more effective braking on wet roads. The blend also contains components that improve traction in winter conditions (on slippery roads and at low temperatures). This all ensures the maximum control over the car during the autumn and winter seasons.

Continental WinterContact TS860 tyres have a cutting-edge grip system for glazed frost. Driving and braking on a slippery surface creates a kind of fluid coat that increases the contact area with the road and reduces the risk of slippage.

The presented tyres are equipped with a directional tread. It has no peripheral grooves, which is typical for most modern winter tyres. Continental WinterContact TS 860 has 3D grooves across the entire tread surface. An additional groove in the tyre wall provides better grip in the snow. This improves the control of the car, facilitates driving through snow and starting in cold conditions.
