Winter tyres: Continental ContiWinterContact TS 850

Our top winter tyre is the way to go. It offers great grip on snow – although it was pipped by the socks over compacted snow – and even in the cold and wet it’s better than our top summer tyre.

Plus, once fitted, you can forget it, unlike a chain or sock, which have to be removed. And winter tyres on all four wheels will help in corners. The ultimate solution.
