Technical details

Technical details

picture_details_snow

Excellent snow performance for outstanding driving pleasure.

Thanks to the special construction of the traction sipes and the new designed snow grooves, traction is significantly raised resulting in superior handling comfort on snow covered roads. 

picture_details_braking

Best braking performance for maximum winter safety.

The blocks of the rib are only separated through thin lateral grooves which form a stiff rib due to the forces while braking. This leads to shorter braking distance, especially for sporty driving in wintry conditions. 

picture_details_handling

Superb dry handling performance for highest steering precision.

Wider and bigger blocks on the outside shoulder increase the contact area. This results in a larger footprint for maximum control and steering precision while cornering on dry wintry roads. 

Exceptional low rolling resistance for reduced fuel consumption.

Due to its combination of innovative compound, profile and construction, the WinterContact™ TS 860 S efficiently reduces rolling resistance for higher fuel saving – without compromising on safety.

The following technologies are available for this tyre but not for each size. Please check here if one of these technolgies is available for your tyre size.

SSR

Self-Supporting Runflat tyre - SSR

The Self-Supporting Runflat (SSR) technology is based on a self-supporting reinforced sidewall. When there is a puncture, the sidewall is prevented from being crushed between the rim and the ground, as well as the tyre from slipping off the rim, which can make it impossible to fit a spare tyre.

An SSR tyre not only takes the danger and inconvenience out of punctures, it also helps with fuel efficiency and frees up interior space in your vehicle.

ContiSilent™ helps to reduce interior vehicle noise by up to nine decibels, depending on the type of vehicle, its speed and the surface it is driving on.  In fact, many leading automotive brands have approached us for this solution to this common problem for many vehicles.

EU Tyre Label

  • Wet Grip:

    Tyres with high wet grip performance (A or B graded) have shorter braking distances on wet roads and are, therefore, safer in the rain. As with fuel efficiency, the D grade isn’t used and there are no plans to use G.

  • Fuel efficiency:

    Tyres account for up to 20% of your vehicle’s fuel consumption so, if you want to get more miles per tank of fuel, you should choose tyres with a high fuel efficiency rating. You will also lower your CO2 emissions. It comes down to rolling resistance i.e. the energy lost when a tyre is moving. The lower the rolling resistance, the less energy is lost and the lower your fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. The difference between an A-rated tyre and a G-rated tyre could be as much as 6 litres per 625 miles.

  • Rolling noise:

    This is the external noise made by the tyre and is measured in decibels. The more filled bars shown on the label, the louder the tyres.
