Product description & features

The Continental Winter Contact TS870 is a dedicated winter tyre for everyday cars, designed to perform when UK temperatures drop and roads turn wet, slushy or snow-covered. It suits commuters and family drivers who want predictable braking and steering through the colder months, without sacrificing motorway stability.

A directional tread pattern with deep circumferential grooves helps clear water and slush quickly, reducing the risk of aquaplaning. Dense, fine sipes across the tread blocks create extra biting edges for traction on snow and packed winter surfaces, while the more rigid shoulder areas support confident cornering and steady lane changes on fast A-roads and motorways.

Underneath, an advanced winter compound is engineered to stay flexible in low temperatures so the contact patch can keep working effectively on cold, wet tarmac. The tread layout is tuned to spread load evenly, helping maintain consistent performance as the tyre wears, and the pitch sequence is designed to keep road noise well controlled for a winter fitment. These tyres are available in many popular passenger-car sizes, and drivers of performance models or SUVs may also want to compare the related TS 870 P range.

The Winter Contact TS870 carries the 3PMSF marking, a recognised standard for severe snow service. You can buy WinterContact TS870 tyres online in all available sizes on Tyres.co.uk, choosing fitting at a nearby garage of your choice or delivery.
