    Designed for cars, rather than vans, 4x4s or commercial vehicles.

    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 Continental WinterContact 8 S is a winter performance tyre. These tyres maintain grip in the winter because of the weather-resistant materials used in the tyre that allow it to maintain flexibility in the cold. The tyre tread has grooves that allow grip in the snow and slush and also channel the water away from the tyre. The design allows for a comfortable and stable drive on the motorways.

The WinterContact 8 S is designed for winter use and engineered for cold, slushy, and snowy conditions that require tyres to be flexible in the low temperatures. These tyres can also be used on vehicles that require more load capacity with the reinforced XL construction. You can find the Continental WinterContact 8 S and the WinterContact 8 S XL at Tyres.co.uk.

Highlights

  • Winter performance tyre
  • Flexible in cold weather
  • Grooves for snow and slush
  • Reinforced XL load capacity

Tyre review for Continental WinterContact 8 S 315/35R21 111V XL
These tyres have been great so far. I had them fitted two weeks ago, and I can already tell they grip the road well. Steering feels a lot more accurate. I'm looking forward to seeing how they handle the snow this winter.

Tyre review for Continental WinterContact 8 S 315/35R21 111V XL
I had the tyres put on at a nearby garage and I didn't have any problems. The fitters were very knowledgeable and gave me advice on how to care for them, and I have definitely noticed smoother rides. They seem to really counteract the bumps and potholes in this area.

Tyre review for Continental WinterContact 8 S 315/35R21 111V XL
Fantastic winter tyres! Way better than the budget ones I used to have. They grip well and I haven't skidded once, despite the worsening weather. Really stand behind my choice.
