For tyres drove about 6000 thousand. miles mainly on motorways in Germany. On the dry and the wet car led confident. At high speed it is heard, but the noise in the limit of reason. I would recommend to anyone.

This is a very good tire for snow, a little loud, braking on wet to dry like decent. How were the new car a little snooping on the way. Total tire good.

I bought a tire because of the good reviews in numerous tests, I wanted some running in snow and slush, and indeed in these conditions the tire performs well. My only comment to this tire is the noise level in the wet, while traveling through a rain-soaked asphalt whether in the city or on the road noise is unacceptable. Compared to the Michelin Alpin A5 is Continental falls much worse. Previously I had Nokian Snowtech 2 and honestly all I advise against this particular model of tire - in all conditions evil. My next choice would certainly Vredestein.

Holds the road well even with aggressive driving, it is relatively quiet, but in the wet it seems strange to describe the sound.

Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 is a decent tyre, good grip on bands and rough road. The only problem is braking: it can cause ABS to turn on in the most absurd moments ( aggressive driving is not taken under consideration ), making braking quite unpredictable and risky. It happened to me to ride Dębica Frigo at the same time as the tyre and the first ones brake better and drive on snow but lose their grip on bands. Michelin’s Alpine leave Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 way behind. I think that my opinion is not to be taken seriously as I have my car repaired ( suspension and brakes were exchanged ) so it’s condition had no influence on this judgement.

I've had these for 28k miles and they lasted well because they are a winter tire designed for colder conditions. The noise was moderate and good grip in wet conditions, I have not had the opportunity to test them in the snow and ice we had no last year. I recommend this as a good tire for the price and very durable, shoulders first address these at an early stage rotation is required.

The tire holds well on wet and dry roads. When it comes to driving on snow, it holds great laterally, and has a mean inhibition. The wet awful howling. Raises a lot of water which is her forte.
