The comfortable winter tyre for medium and luxury-class cars.
Continental ContiWinterContact TS 830 P - winter safety for high-performance vehicles. Exceptional braking power on wet and icy roads. High block stiffness in the tread pattern centre and the large number of sipes with maximum formation of gripping edges provide improved braking power on wet and icy roads. Better traction in snow. The large number of blocks and sipes on the tyre shoulders create a multitude of gripping edges and consequently more effective traction in snow.
A high number of blocks in the shoulder area with more gripping edges guarantee that this tyre will 'cut' into snow more effectively, creating optimal grip in wintry conditions. The result: better stopping performance on snow.
