Specialists of the ADAC, the largest motor club in Europe, have tested the most popular size of winter tires-195/65 R 15.
As a result of the comparative trials, ContiWterContact TS830 was among the five leaders. The tyre conceded to competitors only in two nominations wet asphalt and snow. In the opinion of the professionals, the snow tyre ContiWterContact TS830 won again, ahead of more than 15 competitors. The choice of the best tyre was carried out by an independent ADAC automobile organization, which regularly tests both vehicles and individual components for their performance. ContiWinterContact TS 830 has a directional tread pattern with functional separation. The centerpiece of the tread is intended to provide the ice clutch, and the shoulder area is for high performance in snow. For this it is located in the center of the tread a large cargo chain and large number of lamagles that optimize the grip of the surface. On the shoulder areas there is a large number of unloadable chains and a small number of lops that can significantly improve the grip in the snow. As a result, the functional separation of the tread areas was as close as possible to the resolution of the conflict between the snow grip and the ice clutch. The unique patented three-dimensional laments of ContiWterContact TS 830 allow tyres to keep elasticity while moving in a straight line, but at the same time to be strong and tough on turns. Thus, tyres demonstrate a good steering response for high speed turns. This is very important when it is necessary to avoid an unexpected obstacle on the road. The directional tread pattern is also effective. It provides quick drainage of water and snow-water porridge out of contact. The tyre tread pattern has reduced tyre noise and reduced rolling resistance. A special rubber compound with silicon rubber was used to manufacture the tyre. " A. F. T. ". The composition significantly optimizes the clutch of snowy, icy road, wet roads and reduces rolling resistance.
