    A stronger sidewall lets this tyre carry more weight than a standard tyre of the same size. Marked XL on the sidewall.

  • Tick Icon Winter
    Winter tyres:

    Designed for temperatures below 7°C. Summer tyre rubber hardens in the cold and loses grip, while a winter compound stays soft and holds the road in cold, wet and snowy conditions.

Product description & features

The design characteristic of the performance winter tyre Continental WinterContact TS 850 P is improving braking and steering on roads that are cold and wet, and also on compacted snow. The Cool Chili winter tyre compound keeps the tread flexible and the Cool Chili compound and tread blocks cut with slits and spaced closely, allow the tyre to grip on roads. The PrecisionPlus technology is a combination of engineering to best support the steering and braking for winter conditions. This technology aims to maximise the winter braking and steering.

The S-GRIP of Continental WinterContact TS 850 P allows snow to be trapped within the tread, enabling it to create an interlock with the snow surface when the tyre is in motion or when braking. The 3PMSF and M+S symbols on the sidewall are snow and mud designations. The 3PMSF symbol indicates the snow tyre has met the requirements for snow traction. Tyres.co.uk supplies the Continental WinterContact TS 850 P.

Highlights

  • Cool Chili winter compound
  • Closely spaced slitted tread blocks
  • Snow-trapping tread design
  • 3PMSF and M+S markings

Tyre review for Continental Winter Contact TS850 P 265/50R20 111H XL
This is my first experience with winter tyres, and I opted for the 19" size on my FK2 Type R. In temperatures below ten degrees, the confidence and control these tyres give is great. The grip is so good, and even after breaking them in, the steering is still really responsive. The tyres are great. You can really see the effectiveness of winter tyres even when there is no snow or ice.
