I\u2019ve got these on my ND as well. Absolutely love them. They perform great in the snow, and aren\u2019t too soft and mushy when it\u2019s dry.
Absolutely blown away by how confidence inspiring this car becomes in the winter with these on! We just got a few inch dusting and the stability is absolutely fantastic - this is my first time driving a RWD sports car in inclimate winter weather/temps, but seriously, this feels better than pretty much any other car I've driven with all seasons in this kind of weather. These tires shred in the snow.
I use Continental Top Contact Winter Premium II (what a name...) and have been very pleased with them.
I bought a set of the Viking 8s this season, I've had them on for about a month now. Over the years I've had Yokohama IceGuards, Blizzak WS90s, Uniroyal Tiger Paw Ice and Snow, Firestone WinterForce and the X Ice Snow. The Conti's have been the best of all. Very very quiet, comparable to an all season, sure footed in a blizzard, did well in heavy ice fog and very good in the wet.
Running Vredestein Wintracs on both, and they are basically unstoppable in all winter conditions. So worth it.
I thought it was amazing on snows. I remember charging down Big Pines Highway in a driving snowstorm feeling like I was in a rally stage, it just had grip and traction for days with my Vredestein Wintrak Pros
Snow tires have been one of the best decisions I made with my '25 WRX. I decided to go with the Continental Viking Contact 8, and my goodness, are they fantastic. In the Western New York area (Buffalo) we get dumped on regularly, and sometimes it doesn't let up. For years, I used all-seasons, but switching to proper tires for winter has made a difference like no other.
These look like Vredestein quatracs, which are an excellent all season/all weather tire. They are not a winter tire though. Much better in winter conditions than the 3 season tires which are standard in the US, but not as good as a winter tire.
I've found conti are good until 50% worn then they're like train tracks
Nekem a Vredesteint ajánlottak. Nekem nem jött be, 2 év után elkezdett a futofeluletbol letoredezni a hajtott keréken, pedig az autó sem erős (126le szívó benzin) és én sem vezeték sportosan.
