OVERVIEW
The Continental ContiWinterContact TS830P (MO) is a performance, winter tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. This model is the original equipment tire of select Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
The tire ensures excellent winter weather traction. The asymmetric tread design's high siping density improves the cold temperature, snow and ice gripping ability. The siping detail increases the number of biting edges gripping the road surface in such conditions, promoting a safer performance. The tread's circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning. They eliminate water and slush from below the tire's footprint and boost the wet traction. The tire is not suited to be driven in summer weather. The model received the three mountain peak and snowflake symbol for its harsh winter weather driving capability.
The model's tread design improves its overall controllability. The tread's continuous tread block placement maintains its contact with the road surface at all times, which boosts the steering responsiveness and driving stability. In this manner, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its responsiveness to the driver's commands, while it stabilizes the structure against the driving pressure affecting the model. The stiff tread blocks and the high siping density work together to increase the braking ability. They create friction at the moment of braking, which shortens the braking distance and guarantees a secure performance.
The optimized tire footprint and the tread block stiffness lengthen the tread life. The stiff tread blocks prevent tread flexing while the tires are in motion, while the maximized flat footprint maintains its road contact. The better road contact enables the tire to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking lengthen the tread life and usability by actively resisting the formation of irregular tread wear. The longer lasting tread life elongates the tire's usability as well.
The ContiWinterContact TS830P (MO) promotes a comfortable drive. The flat footprint's close road contact manages to absorb the shock of driving. In this manner, the model lowers the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin during the drive, guaranteeing an increased driving enjoyment.
This specific tire is marked with MO as it is the original equipment of Mercedes vehicles.
