Reviews of winter tires Continental ContiVikingContact 6

Virtues

  • Quiet, tenacious, comfortable

disadvantages

  • the rubber is very soft ... will it wear off quickly?

Comment
Pr-in Germany. 205/55 R16 on the Ford Focus. Drove about 2000 km. From +3 to -11 degrees. From dry asphalt to the frozen country road.
Before that, there was the Bridgestone Revo GZ, which for two winters I have erased to zero.
As soon as Conti put it, he immediately felt that even in comparison with summer Primacy HP, the Viking 6 had less noise even at speeds above 100, and the car was smoother.
At the same time it holds turns very well, although there was a small frost.
In all respects satisfied: quiet, comfortable, tenacious.
Feel with his hands - very soft rubber. Honestly wondered how many seasons or how mileage it will be enough. But time will tell. Also see how to behave at lower temperatures. Feedback will be supplemented.

For almost 2 months, as I ride Viking 6 in Moscow and the region.
Mileage about 5,000 km. Rubber is still soft and quiet. Porridge on the Ring Road holds predictably, inhibits well. ABS has never worked.

But: at the intersection I turned and at a speed of about 10-12 km / h touched the edge of the curb. Bottom line: 3 cm hole in the sidewall. Surprised. Speed ​​is minimal, tire XL. What will be the speed if the pit?
Nevertheless, I bought a new Viking 6 instead of a punched one.

Comment
Bought the other day these tires in the amount of 225/50 / R18 on Audi a6.
It is clear that a review under the current weather conditions will not fully correspond to reality, but I will still write!
Immediately after the tire, I felt that the tires were slightly softer than the summer tires (I have a Yakohama progress sport), the air temperature was +2 - the flight was excellent!
Then today there was a snowball, driving along the Ring Road, clearly sprinkled with reagent (on the Moscow Ring Road there was a porridge to which I specifically drove in order to test the rubber), the flight is excellent and it does not drive at speeds of 110-120.
At the same time handling at a height, the car is very predictable!
So the first impression is very positive, with specific frosts I will add a review, and I recommend it to everyone, although the price is certainly not the smallest!

Bought this rubber in the fall of 2014. What can I say ... Rubber is just perfect for the roads of Moscow, excellent grip, very quiet! I checked on ice ... and I did not find any problems with the snow, it keeps the road clearly ... sharply in a turn at speed, it goes perfectly. Therefore, I strongly advise this rubber!

Comment
in connection with the cooling and recommendations indicated on the company label (used at temperatures below +7) I pereobulsya yesterday.
Well what can I say: 1) after the summer ContiSportContact 5, the silence is simply not real. On the asphalt rolls just fine.
2) Soft.

I can not say how it will be in the winter, in my opinion, the protector is not quite snowy. The last winter was ContiWinerWiking 2 spike.On it, my rear-wheel horse, in conjunction with the stabilization system was just a tank in any weather. I never felt more confident in the winter.

And the rubber from the continental itself, at least for me, very much recommended from the best side. That made the choice in favor of the German brand.

Comment
For a trip to Europe, I purchased these tires (they are not allowed on the spikes), on the run of about 3,500 km on the flat road the inner side of the tire broke. Warranty refused to change - can not establish the cause. Thanks for ripping the back and not the front, it could end pitifully.
