Winter -haired tire Continental ICECONTACT 3 215/65 R17 103T

The Continental ICECONTACT 3 Winter Shippoint Tire is designed for a wide spectrum of passenger cars. The ICECONTACT 3 model belongs to the class of Nordic winter tires intended for operation in harsh northern regions. Continental ICECONTACT 3 AUTOSHK is characterized by supernACT clutch, accurate manageability and short brake path on ice, improved controllability in the snow and slush. Continental ICECONTACT 3 tires with a landing diameter of up to 16 inches will be equipped with aluminum spikes, dimensions above 17 inches of a new type of ContiflexStud.

fantastic adhesion on the ice provide a combination of two types of spikes and an optimized scheme for their location. This provides an unsurpassed clutch level, accurate handling and a short braking distance. A significant improvement in controllability in the snow and in a slush is achieved thanks to a special groove that quickly removes water and wet snow from the center of the tread, providing excellent contact with the hard surface of the road and reducing the risk of aquaplaning to a minimum. Rumors in the tread grooves increase the stiffness and stability of the blocks, improving controllability on a dry road. The unique composition of the compound with rapeseed oil retains the elasticity of the tread at low temperatures, providing reliable clutch and improved traffic characteristics.

ContiflexStud spikes significantly reduce the wear of the road surface and provide reliable clutch on the ice. Thanks to the elastic rubber of the spike, they have an increased service life and produce less noise in the cabin. Contiflexstud allowed to improve the clutch with ice covered with ice. Compared to traditional spikes, the wear of the road surface was reduced by 20 %. The rubber body of the spike wear out with the tread. Thanks to this, the efficiency of the pin remains, which ensures a high level of driving safety throughout the entire duration of the tire.
