The Continental Viking Contact 7 is the best winter tire I've ever driven on and the sneak peak I've had at the Viking Contact 8 looks like they've made it even better.
I like how little noise they make, their performance on both snow and ice, and how the treads don't fold over on one another.
For posterity, I've been running 235/45/18 Conti DWS06+ w/ no issues on the stock 18x7.5 ET45 Canyons lowered on Golf R front & Golf R Variant rear springs w/ Koni SA dampers for a little over a year: I think it's just about the perfect amount of sidewall myself, but would prefer another half inch of wheel width for flushness & sidewall contour.
I have the Continental VikingContact7 winter tires and I couldnt be happier. They have kept me out of some sticky situations.
Laufenns are great. I run G fit AS year round in the snow on both of our cars.
I have non studded Conti Viking and it's perfect. It can also be a handful to drive, It moves under throttle, slides left and right. To me, this is not a drawback, it makes it fun. But, it's 5 in the morning, going to work half asleep, and you have a hard time accelerating at green lights getting passed by Yaris's, it can suck. I have a 15 min commute it's OK, wouldn't spend my day in it. On back roads it's a charm. I would not let my mother drive it in the snow, you have to be on your A game.

I put a set of Continental TrueContact Tour on our 2016 about this time last year and so far so good. They do OK in the snow (we don’t get a lot or heavy) and I don’t think they are noisy compared to the Yokohamas that were on them before. We put a lot of highway miles on them and they handle well in the rain. Pacific Northwest, so I worry more about driving in the rain over other conditions.
I went with continental DWS06+ and I like them, went from rt660s to them and you can definitely tell a big difference in grip but it wasn’t as bad as I thought it’d be
I'd even recently done the timing belt and it had 2 sets of wheels with Continental tires.
Brand new Kryptotal FR tire, replacing an Assegai. Was able to easily get the tire onto the rim but unable to get the tire actually seated onto the bead and holding air.
