Features & Benefits: ExtremeWinterContact is engineered with an advanced tread compound and structured siping to dramatically improve ice and snow traction. The tire also delivers noticeable improvements in wet performance, excellent fuel efficiency, extended wear and ride comfort; and considerable improvements in dry performance.
“This will be Continental Tire’s best winter tire to date,” said Tony Talbert, light truck and winter tire manager, Continental Tire North America. “The ExtremeWinterContact will deliver an extreme new level of traction seen in the industry today.”
ExtremeWinterContact also features elevated lateral grooves which result in a stiffer pattern for improved dry handling; and inclined longitudinal grooves for greater driving force for excellent traction and braking on snow. Multiple gripping edges give excellent traction and braking on snow, and a high-tech flexible tread compound, combined with high sipe density, work together to deliver reduced braking distance, even on ice.
