205/65R17 Continental WinterContact TS 860 S – 3PMS EV Compatible M+S Performance Winter
Category: Winter – Performance
The Continental WinterContact TS 860 S is a performance winter tire with excellent snow traction due to its special traction sipes and snow grooves that interlock with the snow. Thin lateral grooves separating the tread blocks form a stiff rib while braking leading to shorter braking distances in wintry conditions. The WinterContact TS 860 S has big outside shoulder tread blocks that increase the contact area for maximum control and steering while cornering on dry roads, and efficiently reduces the rolling resistance for higher fuel savings without compromising the safety.
Carries the 3PMSF symbol — tested and rated for severe snow service. XL (Extra Load) — built to handle higher inflation pressures and heavier loads than a standard-load tire of the same size.
The 205/65R17 Continental WinterContact TS 860 S – 3PMS EV Compatible M+S Performance is a winter / winter – performance tire, built around a 205 mm section width for a 17-inch wheel.

Worth noting on the spec side: this tire carries 3PMS certification for severe snow service, an XL extra load rating, load index 100 and speed rating H (~210 km/h).

The 205/65R17 Continental WinterContact TS 860 S – 3PMS EV Compatible M+S Performance is a Winter tire with the 3PMSF symbol, so it qualifies for Quebec’s winter mandate.
