WinterContinental winter tires have been winning tire tests for many years, and the 870P is no exception. The “P” stands for performance, but don’t be mistaken, its rolling resistance is also praised, making it ideal for EVs. A well-balanced tire.
Outstanding all-weather performance with secure, balanced handling and precise steering across dry, wet, and snowy conditions.
Exceptional winter performance, featuring superior traction, short braking distances, and top-notch snow handling.
Excellent wet road capabilities with short braking distances and strong aquaplaning resistance, ensuring safe driving in rain.
Low rolling resistance that enhances fuel efficiency and contributes to lower fuel consumption.
Good tread life and durability indicated by low wear and favorable mileage predictions.
Some reports note reduced precision on dry roads during high-demand maneuvers, including slight understeer and less agile handling.
The tire’s premium pricing may not appeal to all, with a higher price level compared to some competitors.
In certain tests, wet braking performance and aquaplaning resistance were only average, with early onset of aquaplaning in some scenarios.
A few users experienced a higher rolling noise level, making the tire somewhat less quiet than top competitors.
Despite excellent snow handling, one review observed that the tire underperformed on icy surfaces relative to the very best performers, highlighting potential limits in extreme winter conditions.
Continental WinterContact TS 870 P was launched and replaced Continental ContiWinterContact TS 850P.
