Type of review

They hold perfectly on almost any surface (within reason, of course), On hard ice, it feels even better than studded one (the one I used before, although the models are already outdated from Michelin and Nokian) on snow porridge, very unstable behavior for such money expected more, I use I have been driving with tires since October in different weather on different roads, so I recommend day tires to everyone who drives in the winter with a "head",

Pros
  • Low noise, Predictable behavior on the road,
Cons
  • Behavior on slush, Tires for the money could behave more stable,

Good product, good quality, not bad.

Winter tires Continental VikingContact7. These tires are used in size 205/60 R16 on a Nissan Laurel 2.0 car, automatic transmission, rear-wheel drive, rear differential lock in the Far East, Hong Kong Territory. During the winter season, the tires showed excellent grip in the city, as well as on the highway. They retained their elasticity at temperatures down to -30 degrees. When driving uphill, in low gear, the tires showed reliable grip, which gave confidence on the road in the city, as well…

Pros
  • Ride, stability, handling, grip.
Cons
  • Acoustic comfort

I like the product, the quality did not disappoint.

Put on a new Subaru Legacy. A car can do much more than rubber can. On dry pavement, I would like more grip on high-speed arcs. When there is a lot of water on the road, 100-110 km / h is the maximum for this rubber. Beyond that, it's just dangerous. Only the handling of the car helps out. Native summer dunlop allows a lot more. Wouldn't buy a second time. But if you don’t bludgeon, but drive like a vegetable, then the rubber captivates with the complete absence of acoustic discomfort.

Pros
  • Silence in the cabin
Cons
  • Handling on wet pavement

Incredibly quiet and comfortable. The noise in the car has been significantly reduced. Moderately soft. Four on ice. I would like to be more stable, but what is. Snow porridge perfectly digests. If a lot of water starts to "drive" at a speed of 80, instability appears. Be afraid of puddles on the sides at the same speed. In this regard, the "kontiki" turned out to be worse than the previous "Michelin" studded ones. But only in this. Otherwise, only positive emotions. At the time of writing this

Pros
  • Silence, comfort, reduced fuel consumption
Cons
  • Hydroplaning (see comment)

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

4 years on ContiVikingContact 6. No hernias, etc. Operating mode - city 20% and highway 80%. I liked the tires, so I decided to take a new model - ContiVikingContact 7. According to ContiVikingContact 7 tests, it took first place among non-studded tires in the tests of the 2022 magazine Autoreview, the Norwegian Motor (NAF) and the Finnish Tekniikan Maailma.

Pros
  • - quiet - soft and comfortable - good handling at high speed for tires with soft rubber
Cons
  • - you need to drive carefully on the ice

The purchase brought only positive emotions.

Bought a couple of months ago a novelty from the company Continental. All the time I preferred only studded tires, I thought that with front-wheel drive and frequent trips on snowy icy roads, they are still more efficient. But the downside is that you can’t put them in early, the spikes wear out quickly. And since winter comes unexpectedly, and it’s a pity to kill spikes, I decided to buy a friction tire for the off-season as well. After driving about 5t. km. I realized that I was wrong, there…

Pros
  • Excellent handling, soft, comfortable, short braking distance, directional tread pattern.
Cons
  • From no.

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

We took a kit for lexus rx350 - size 235/60 R18. Wheels are not native weights went average. As a result, everyone liked the rubber, it behaves well on all types of surfaces, on snow, ice, including asphalt. Handling and braking are predictable. I didn’t have a chance to experience it in a very severe frost, because. The temperature never dropped below 15. How many seasons will last time will tell. If funds allow, I think a great rubber! She's worth it.

Pros
  • low noise Good handling Adequate stopping distance Quite soft, comfortable on bumps
Cons
  • Not detected

Fits the description completely, very satisfying.

Comparing Konstik with the previous Michelin X-Size 2 Velcro, on which I skated 12 winters on a quattro, to pay tribute to the technology went far ahead and the bear began to crack on the sides, and everyone was in patches, but not a single hernia. Let's look at the wear resistance of Kontik. I hope it doesn’t disappoint, I managed to take it for 9800/ bottle in the amount of 225 / 55r16.

Pros
  • Very quiet, tenacious, rows only on the way, since the four-wheel drive quattro with a torso helps, I took in September 21, made in Germany 21 g stamped.
Cons
  • On cold tires in a turn on a flyover at a speed of 55-65 km / h, even all-wheel drive floats to the side of the turn, despite the absence of snow, but ice could be seen from the morning.

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

I installed it at the beginning of December, the average daily temperature was still positive, there was no snow, much less ice, I changed shoes to replace the summer Bridge 697 and, frankly, I was shocked, 7 Viking caused a real delight, firstly, the tire is very, very comfortable, not noisy, I stopped noticing joints, pits and other irregularities after the Bridge, the autumn was long and warm after the rain, I decided to check for aquaplaning and Kontik coped with a bang, even deep puddles…

Pros
  • Ride, handling, comfort.
Cons
  • No

Hi all. This is my first Velcro. And I'm surprised it's so good. Rubber is not noisy. Compared to summer Pirelli, heaven and earth. I myself am surprised. Rubber perfectly holds the road both on ice and on wet pavement with snow porridge. I especially like how she rows in the snow. But don't overdo it. Make friends with your head. These are not spikes. I have been riding for the 3rd season, the flight is normal. In general, I am satisfied with the rubber, I recommend

Pros
  • Great grip on any surface
Cons
  • Did not reveal

Bought a few months ago on the recommendation of a friend (he is well versed in winter tires, his opinion can be trusted). I changed my shoes in mid-October, when the first frosts were already there, but there was no snow yet. Before that, I went on spikes, I thought that they were more efficient for front-wheel drive and daily city trips. At the moment, I have driven about 5 thousand km on the new rubber and realized that it is in no way inferior to the studded one in grip and handling, and in

The best thing Ive ever used, a great item for everyone!

Was German or Slovak. Bought for 32 thousand before the start of the 19th season of the year. 215/55/17. Rides normally. Quiet softly. In winter, you can carefully steer without problems both in snow and ice and in puddles with a rut (tested in Hong Kong) For 35 thousand (2 seasons), 2 wheels were fairly brought up. I had to buy 2 more for next season. I rode carefully, on a Camry it’s different. Sold used for 20, all six pieces. Now the main thing: I bought new 225/55/17 made in 2022. And they

Pros
  • No noise, smoothly flies bridge joints.
Cons
  • For 35 thousand demolished. Maybe that's the tire limit. Such a run.

Best thing for the money, glad I did it.

This is my first Velcro. Before that, I used only studded tires from different manufacturers - the latest Gislaved Nord Frost 200 in size 195 * 65 * R15. Viking took in the same size. The experience of using Velcro in the winter of 20-21 and at the end of 21 in the city and on the intercity highway showed that the rubber is soft and tenacious enough for confident acceleration from a standstill (from a traffic light) without slipping (only premium foreign cars can overtake me), as well as during

Pros
  • I took rubber in 20 in the amount of 195 * 65 * R15. I use it on a car - LADA VESTA SW CROSS. Driving experience over 20 years. Delighted with rubber! Quiet, excellent grip on dry pavement, on water. Perfectly rows in the snow, in the "porridge". Ideal for use both in the city and on snowy roads
Cons
  • It behaves a little worse on ice (than spikes) and on ice covered with snow, but the difference with spikes can be compensated by experience and driving style.

I cant believe I paid for it, the quality is disgusting.

If you want to ruin the rims, then these tires are perfect, I put the original size 215 / 55R17 on the original Lexus rims, I bought tires, changed from summer to winter and just stunned! The disk is sticking out. No sideboard. And this is in 2022?! On the Continental website, the disc is beautifully flush with the rubber! Extremely upset . just threw away the money at the risk of ruining the Disks.

Pros
  • Advantages are not considered after the disadvantages
Cons
  • Tire without bumper bead

First impressions on cold asphalt without ice Ideal handling is better than on summer tires Silence in the cabin in a traffic jam is almost silent Soft passage of speed bumps without this scratching of spikes on asphalt Let's see in winter whether the tires will justify the hopes placed on them and the money invested after running in in winter they slide on ice snow is great!

Pros
  • Handling silence in the cabin softness of the passage of joints on the Hong Kong Ring Road patches of asphalt quite reliable behavior on icy and slippery asphalt and on snow no worse than the studded Nordman - 5 that was before
Cons
  • I did not reveal any shortcomings except for the high price - payment for premium quality!

Bought in size 245*50 R19 RunFlat for BMW X3 G01. After the summer Pirelli P7 seemed much softer). It rows in the snow, rides confidently in the snow, even a blizzard, even powder, slides on the ice of course, but keeping the speed, it rides predictably on the ice, there are no demolitions and skidding, and the speed is not 5 km / h . on dry asphalt everything is comfortable and understandable, in porridge or slush, in principle, as on dry pavement. Again, compared to the Pirelli R7, it behaves

Pros
  • Quiet, softer than summer, good grip, predictable behavior, decent wear

I was surprised by the quality for the price.

I bought these tires for my Solaris instead of the cordiant winter drive 2. Before buying, I studied the reviews and it was noted from repeated reviews that they are quite quiet, they have good snow flotation and hold the road well in the city. It was difficult to choose among a large abundance of offers, but I decided to purchase these tires, for 4 pieces it came out to about 24,000. What can I say: if you drive around the city, then they really keep the road well (especially after cordiant, I

Pros
  • A good European brand - Continental, quiet tires, snow handling, confident road holding
Cons
  • Can't find it, I don't think they exist.

Great value for the money, definitely recommended!

Car Kia Rio 4 2022 Tire size 185/65 R15. Driving experience 10 years. 2 seasons passed on it, I think it is the best friction rubber among. Very comfortable in terms of noise, excellent road holding in winter (snow, porridge, severe frosts on asphalt), of course, except for ice (here you need to be quiet), wear-resistant and you can not rush to quickly change shoes in the off-season. I recommend this tire!

Pros
  • Handling, low noise, excellent grip in cold weather on dry asphalt, snow and porridge (the lamellas work out very well). Excellent wear resistance.
Cons
  • Ice, do not brake sharply, otherwise it will not catch on. Slow down and everything will be ok!

I like the product, the quality didn't let me down.

I traveled for three days (after many years on spikes) and it so happened that I got into a thaw and heavy snowfall, both in the city and on the highway. The most unpleasant thing in winter in the city is ice covered with snow. Yes, in such a situation on studded tires, braking will be long and there will be plenty of emotions. But on fictions on ice, the car does not slow down at all! I specifically tried it in an empty parking lot, covered with almost bare ice.

Pros
  • Silence, softness, heard the sound of the engine for the first time in winter
Cons
  • Relationship with ice

Satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

For the first time, I bought non-studded tires for the winter for testing, so my impressions are more like a comparison of studded and non-studded tires. Everything that they write: quiet, soft - it's all true. But about the excellent behavior on the ice - a strong exaggeration. We haven't had winter yet. But I went on vacation to my northern neighbors, and there, out of habit, I had a few unpleasant moments when, on an unexpected thin transparent ice, you press the brake. crossroads. Good…

Pros
  • Quiet, soft
Cons
  • Enthusiasm about behavior on the ice is clearly exaggerated
