Winter tire test: Conti is the winter king

The results of the ÖAMTC winter tire test with its partners revealed three findings:

  • Der Contintal WinterContact TS860 konnte sowohl der Dimension 175/65/ R14 T als auch in 205/55 R16 H vollends überzeugen und sicherte sich den Testsieg.
  • Bei den 16-Zöllern lagen Conti, Goodyear und Dunlop fast gleichauf, die Unterschiede waren minimal 
  • Premiumreifen müssen nicht zwingend besser als preisgünstigere Modelle sein

 What was particularly pleasing was the good, wide midfield and there was only one tire in each dimension that failed. Striking: Semperit was again at the bottom of the points evaluation with both test models. Thomas Stix, ÖAMTC tire expert, summarizes: "Premium brands are not automatically better. In the broad midfield, you can probably find premium brands as well as brands from the middle and lower price segments."
