Continental ContiWinterContact TS 800 175/55R15 SL Touring Tire

Continental ContiWinterContact TS 800. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Winter weather traction; Excellent controllability; Fuel efficient performance; . OVERVIEW: The Continental ContiWinterContact TS 800 is a touring, winter tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.This model utilizes its detailed directional tread design to maintain a consistent contact with the driving surface, enhancing the vehicle’s handling dynamics and driving stability. These tread elements provide a high number of biting edges, allowing the tire to respond faster and more precisely to the driver’s commands. This greatly improves the maneuvering ability of the vehicle, enabling the driver to control the vehicle with confidence in various winter weather conditions.The lighter construction and ideal tread work together to lower the rolling resistance throughout the performance. The structure reduces the overall weight of the tire, while tread’s constant road contact further helps with providing a fuel conscious drive. The rolling resistance is the force that determines how much energy is needed to keep the tire in motion, and lowering it reduces the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. In other words, this promotes a cost-efficient and environmentally friendly driving experience.The Continental ContiWinterContact TS 800 utilizes its directional tread elements to firmly grip the driving surface and ensure a constant road contact in winter weather conditions. The durable compound optimizes rubber flexibility in low temperature conditions, while directional tread firmly grips the driving surface on icy and snowy roads. The groove design ejects water and slush from the footprint, preventing them from blocking the road contact while in motion. It prevents the vehicle from hydroplaning on wet and snow-covered roads. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
