It was fitted in mid-December, so I haven’t driven enough yet to say anything about durability or mileage, and we haven’t had any snow yet. However, the tyre is quieter than other winter tyres and seems to go further on a tankful than Continental all-season tyres. I have special dimensions, so I had to find the tyre here, and it hasn’t disappointed. I had it fitted by my own mechanic. Continental tyres are in the top 3 league in terms of quality. The price is on the expensive side, but they also last for miles without losing stability and comfort. However, the delivery time could be shorter, but the tyre is produced in a southern European country, so shipping time should be expected. The delivery company in Denmark should provide more information when the item has been delivered. I didn’t receive a notification on any platform, nor did they knock on the door. The tyres were simply left by the front door. 2 pcs. Price around 3,000, so I would have liked a message or a knock on the door!
They are the best Nordic winter tyres on the market according to the world’s most reliable test in the Swedish magazine “Teknikens Värld”. And they do not disappoint; we now have them on three cars. They are a little weaker on wet roads, i.e. with regard to aquaplaning, than Central European winter tyres. But they are the best compromise when you want to drive safely on real winter surfaces, i.e. snow and ice. See also https://www.test.se/friktionsdack/#ContinentalVikingContact8
