Opinion from outside the UK

tyre indeed good, but not worth the price - equally good tyres can be bought a lot cheaper. It is simply too expensive, others offer the same thing cheaper for example: Firestone, Sava, Nokian, Uniroyal - such I had. Continental ContiWinterContact TS790 V hold well on the wet and on snow, ice is obvious. For half the price equally good tyres from different brand can be bought. I suggest not throw money away at the brand, my next is Nokian. With Continental ContiWinterContact TS790 V I had to use chains to get over a hil. Read more Collapse

Opinion from outside the UK

well .. I have spent a bit more than Continental ContiWinterContact TS760 were worth, for sure! but I know that at the same time I reached the top! the tyres are the top shelf ones! I tried them everywhere, especially wet and I'm delighted. I do not regret the Continental ContiWinterContact TS790. I made a holiday in the mountains of Scotland, even through mud, snow and ice. I was really comfortable with those tyres - they are great, but what do you expect from a tyre like this! Read more Collapse

Opinion from outside the UK

Continental ContiWinterContact TS790 V is a very good winter tyre, do not feel that this is a winter one. The first time I switched to summer tyres (in my case, Dunlop SP Sport 2050 W 225/45 R18 91W) did not notice any difference. Neither in terms of noise, adhesion, abrasion, etc.. Only the appearance of the tyre itself could be a little better, but other than that it is all positives. Worth the money. Read more Collapse

Opinion from outside the UK

Continental ContiWinterContact TS790 V were checked on another car Audi A8 4.2 300HP, but the size 235/55/R17.Z due to a lower profile at +5 ° C, it felt as if the air descended. But at this size tested in extreme conditions, when everyone put on the chains, I still had no problems with traction, certainly it is thanks to Quattro drive, but the tyres too. Generally, revelation. Read more Collapse
