Thanks to the special construction of the traction sipes and the new designed snow grooves the interlocking with the snow significantly raises the traction and handling comfort on snow covered roads.
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 espacially for sporty driving in wintry conditions.
Wider and bigger blocks on the outside shoulder increase the contact area which results in larger footprint for maximum control and steering precision while cornering on dry wintry roads.
Due to its combination of an innovative compound and pattern, this tire efficiently reduces* the rolling resistance for possible higher fuel savings (EU Tyre Label class B-D) – without compromising safety.
*In comparison to its predecessor: WinterContact TS 860 (EU Tyre Label class C-D)
