The ContiWinterContact TS850 is the ideal choice for drivers who want the highest levels of winter safety. The large number of blocks and sipes on the tyre shoulders create a multitude of gripping edges and consequently more effective traction in snow. In addition to this the compound and construction of winter tyres is designed to perform well on cold wet roads.
