CONTINENTAL ContiWinterContact TS 760 - 145/65/15 072T - E/C/70dB - Winter tire

Its special profile design with many deep ribs as well as a blocking line, ensures that this tyre provides a safe and secure driving experience in snow and ice conditions. The ContiWinterContact TS 760 is also ideal for rain or slush, setting high standards. Dry roads are mastered equally well, using a welldeveloped profile, resulting in a high driving safety and comfort. Due to its special constuction, the tyre has a low running resistance which increases the performance and reduces the fuelconsumption.

Top results in the tests of leading automobile magazines confirm the high quality of the ContiWinterContact TS 760. In addition, leading manufacturers such as VW, Ford, Opel, MercedesBenz, Renault and other recommend this quality product. The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.

With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decisionmaking aid. Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safetyrelevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.

Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safetyrelevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
