Tyre reviews Continental ContiVanContact Ice. Page 1 44

Excellent tires!!! Not noisy despite the studs, soft. On ice and snow, the car drives like on dry asphalt. I definitely recommend!!!

Excellent tires performed through the winter season on city roads and highway. Lost 4 studs from 6 tires. Snow banks, slush, and ice - great traction and stability of the vehicle. Sometimes drive with overloading. Tire rating 5+.

The Continental Conti Van Contact Ice 185/75 R16C 104/102R tire data - is excellent for one season only. Using it in the next season adds a lot of headaches, namely:

loss and loosening of the studs,

air leaks through a fallen stud, although there is no through hole,

as a result, we put a camera,

the studs are pressed through and a bump is created inside the tire, which wears out the camera and the wheel is empty again.

I'll tell you for that kind of money, premium tires are a complete waste.

I don't have many Gazelles, only 4 cars, and each had such tires, I drive my own goods, I don't overload the cars.

In short, I wrote as it is and switched to Sailun, with which there are no problems at all.

In my opinion, these are very decent tires for a minivan. Over the first season, I haven't lost a single stud. The tires have saved me multiple times on icy climbs - in the Moscow region, everything was covered in ice for several weeks at the beginning of winter. Snowdrifts are also not a problem. The only downside is that they are loud, of course. However, this is a characteristic of all studded tires, and the poor soundproofing on the VW Caravelle only makes this drawback very noticeable.
