Continental VikingContact 7 Tires
Continental VikingContact 7 is a high-performance all-round winter tire designed by German technology. It has a soft compound tread, so the tire can deliver a strong grip on snowy and icy roads, as well as perform in extremely low temperatures. VikingContact 7 has a unique to other Continental winter tires v-shaped tread pattern, with the diamond-shaped blocks in the center. It helps with the rapid evacuation of slush and water from the contact patch. Multiple horizontal sipes in the tread blocks assist with additional grip and help to interlock with the surface by capturing the snow, which makes the tires stick to the ground and have better braking. VikingContact 7 is M+S rated and has a three-peak mountain snowflake symbol, meaning that it met all the safety requirements and had been approved to serve in severe snowy conditions.
