Viking Contact 8

The Continental VikingContact 8 is engineered for drivers who face the toughest winter conditions and need unwavering control on ice, snow, and cold wet pavement. Designed for passenger cars, crossovers, SUVs, and light trucks, this premium winter option offers the stability and confidence required for severe-weather driving. Whether installed as a winter wheel and tire package or purchased as a complete tire set, the VikingContact 8 ensures dependable cold-weather performance for daily commuting and longer winter travel.

Using Continental’s PolarPlus Technology, the VikingContact 8 maintains a flexible tread compound in freezing temperatures, improving road contact and shortening braking distances on snow- and ice-covered surfaces. Its Ice Grip certified compound and advanced tread geometry provide exceptional stability on slick roads, using multi-directional sipes and deep channels to bite into ice and packed snow. The tire also includes the 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake certification, confirming it meets strict severe-weather performance standards. Enhanced radial construction and strong tread block support help deliver predictable handling and confident braking in winter’s most challenging moments.

Comfort and efficiency round out the VikingContact 8’s advantages. The tread is engineered to reduce road noise for a quieter ride—especially beneficial for electric vehicles where tire sound is more noticeable. Its low rolling resistance helps optimize range and fuel economy without sacrificing winter grip.
