Product description & features

WinterContact TS 850 P SUV is designed for SUVs and optimises braking on wet roads and provides better snow traction. Each of these is good for performance when external temperatures are under 7 degrees Celsius. ActiveBand technology is Continental's technology that forms a glassy resin which dampens when the tyre comes in contact with the road to improve braking on wet roads. The tread design provides snow traction and braking with closely spaced blocks and fine slits and a S-GRIP design. The casing is strengthened to accommodate the higher Centre of Gravity of SUVs.

In this variation, PrecisionPlus technology increases the tread blocks and slits in the design to maintain responsiveness in cornering and braking. This was the last iteration before Continental replaced it with the WinterContact TS 870 P SUV. The reinforced XL versions have XL on the sidewall. At Tyres.co.uk, we have the reinforced versions and the Continental WinterContact TS 850 P SUV. We stock the Continental Winter Contact TS850P SUV at Tyres.co.uk.

Tyre review for Continental Winter Contact TS850 P SUV 265/45R21 108V XL
I am very pleased with the performance of these tyres. It is excellent in cold conditions. I replaced the standard all-season SUV tyres, and the change is huge in terms of ice grip and handling. The stability of the car is also the better with these tyres. I notice the grip even more compared to my other car with Continental SportContact 5 summer tyres. Both of these family cars have been driven on the same route, and the summer-tyred car would spin in third gear when accelerating. In contrast, the winter-tyred car had no problem at all and is very impressive. I have already purchased an additional set of wheels to make sure I have winter tyres to fit on them whenever I want.

Tyre review for Continental Winter Contact TS850 P SUV 265/45R21 108V XL
Winter tyres are built for driving in snow and icy conditions. Their tread design allows the tyre to grab and hold snow giving me the traction I need to drive up steep hills even in deep snow. They are also silent and seem to have no impact on my fuel consumption. I usually remove them when the temperature exceeds 9 degrees so I am unable to comment on their performance in warmer conditions. Just remember, these are winter tyres, not all-season or all-weather tyres.
