Stiff shoulder blocks deliver outstanding cornering stability.
Its band-shaped tread structure in the centre zone, similar to that of summer tires, ensures shortest braking distances on dry roads.
Thicker sipes with their sipe spacers on the inside of the tire keep the sipes open when they pass through the ground contact area. This makes the sipes fill up with more snow and boosts the amount of extra grip on wintry roads.
The German magazine sport auto published in the current issue 11/2008 winter tire test result of the size: 245/40 R 18 V.
Result for the ContiWinterContactTM TS 810 Sport: "Recommended"
Evaluation:
Secure grip in wet conditions is crucial for safe driving. Performance is graded into classes, A to G (although D and G are not currently used). The stopping distance between a class A tire and a class F tire can be as much as 18 metres.
Reduced rolling resistance saves fuel and cuts CO2 emissions. Class A tires deliver the best fuel efficiency, with each subsequent class through to G increasing fuel consumption by between 0.42 and 0.56 mpg for a car which does 36 mpg.
This is the external noise made by the tire and is measured in decibels. The more filled bars shown on the label, the louder the tires.
