Continental ContiWinterContact TS800
The Bottom Line
The ContiWinterContact TS800 is best for drivers who prioritize long treadlife and decent snow traction without breaking the bank. However, its wet grip performance is a notable weakness, especially in slushy or rainy conditions.
Important Note
Wet grip performance is subpar, which could be a concern in rainy winter conditions.
Pros
- Treadlife score of 10 with an 80,000-mile warranty, which is unusually high for winter tires.
- Snow traction score of 8, making it reliable for winter conditions.
- 3PMSF certification ensures it meets the standard for severe snow service.
Cons
- Wet grip score of 5.5 is below what you'd expect for a winter tire, which could be a concern during slushy conditions.
- Noise level is moderate at a score of 6, which might be noticeable compared to quieter options like the Continental VikingContact 7.
- Limited information on ice traction performance, which might be a drawback for those prioritizing ice-specific capabilities.
