Review on Continental IceContact 3 215/65 R16 102T Winter by Wiktor Lisowicz ᠌

I switched to these tires with IceContact 2. The 2nd generation was just a huge step up for me in terms of road behavior on ice and snow compared to the Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8. Handling on ice was like driving on dirt, not on ice. However, I had to say goodbye to the spikes pretty quickly. I had to tweak. IceContact 3 was a step back or even two steps back in terms of handling on ice compared to IceContact 2. There is almost no side-slip grip in corners - the car carries. On straight lines (acceleration-braking) more or less norms. But almost all spikes are intact after the 1st winter season. Most likely, I will switch to Mishka X-Ice North 4 at the next change of winter tires.
