Continental WinterContact TS 830P

Winter safety for high-performance vehicles

Exceptional braking power on wet and icy roads
High block stiffness in the tread pattern centre and the large number of sipes with maximum formation of gripping edges provide improved braking power on wet and icy roads.

Better traction in snow
The large number of blocks and sipes on the tire shoulders create a multitude of gripping edges and consequently more effective traction in snow.

High mileage
Due to an even distribution of block stiffness and the corresponding even pressure distribution in the ground contact patch, the ContiWinterContact™ TS 830 P has a lower and more even wear resulting in higher mileage performance. 

Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety. Exceptional braking power on ice and snow. Trusted by leading car manufacturers, including the models eg. Audi A1/A3/A6/A8, BMW Series 1/3/5/6 and Porsche 911/Macan/Panamera.

Highlights:

• Safety: shorter stopping distance, protection against aquaplaning
• Performance: excellent handling,winter performance
• Environment: quiet drive, fuel efficient

Center sub grooves with shallower depth enhance vertical/lateral block stiffness to avert block deformation and further reduce energy consumption. Shoulder groove bottom with big angle design retains shoulder block continuity, weakens block wrilggling, and reduces energy consumption.

Two section lateral groove design on shoulder profile prevents uneven tread wear and provides adequate traction. Four circumferential groove design enhances drainage performance and safety for wet road driving.

Center rib design reinforces straight driving and handling performance. Circumferential rib design on tread shoulder,with thin sipes instead of run-through lateral grooves,prevents groove resonance and reduce noise generated by run-through lateral grooves.

Adopting excellent dispersible silica and unique agents reduces rooling resistance substantially as well as enhances wet gripUsing unique synthetical rubber with 'Chain-End Modification' strengthens fuel saving and traction. Ha-oil-free formula for all sizes conforms with EU environmental protection laws.

Nokian WR A3

• Absolute grip and excellent handling in all winter conditions
• Stable and easy to control even at high speeds
• Rolls lightly, saving the environment and fuel

The Nokian WR A3 is optimised for efficient cars with a special emphasis placed on the tyre's precise and sensitive driving at higher speeds.  This environmentally friendly premium product feature nanotechnology, canola oil and the solid winter expertise of Nokian Tyres, which guarantee reliable functionality in the typically varying winter conditions of Central Europe.

Nanobase for optimal stability
The sporty Nokian WR A3 has an asymmetrical inside-outside tread pattern that enables reliable grip without compromising high-speed driving properties. The inner shoulder design enhances the removal of water and slush. The Nanobase structure enabled by nanotechnology improves the tyre's steering properties and control when driving in corners, changing lanes and dodging. The tyre has exemplary control properties in extreme situations on both slippery surfaces and roads offering a firm grip. The tread rubber compound, the Cryogenic Canola Compound, is a novel combination of natural rubber, silica and canola oil that optimises winter grip, wet grip and wear resistance in varying temperatures.

The golfball-like Silent Groove Design for a more pleasant response and higher mileage
The semi-round cavities on the sides of the longitudinal ribs, resembling a golf ball pattern, cool the Nokian WR A3 by minimizing the heat emission and make it more durable and safe even at high speeds. This innovation, called Silent Groove Design, also reduces drag and ensures better mileage thanks to lower fuel consumption. Moreover, it successfully minimises the inside and pass-by noise of the vehicle. The Silent Sidewall Technology increases driving comfort. Distinct zone in the sidewall filters the noise and vibration emitted from the road surface through the tyre tread and relays it to the bead area to reduce the noise heard inside the vehicle.

Winter Safety Indicator for added safety and comfort
Flawless winter driving is possible only if the tyres are in good condition. Nokian WR A3 is equipped with the comfort-adding Driving Safety Indicator (DSI) with the unique snowflake symbol, the Winter Safety Indicator. Patented by Nokian Tyres, this standard element located on the tyre's tread blocks indicates the depth of the main grooves in millimetres. The snowflake symbol remains visible until the groove depth is four millimetres. The tyre sidewalls have the familiar info area for tyre pressure recommendations. The right tyre pressure makes steering more accurate, reduces tyre damage and lowers fuel costs.
