All about the product
A top-quality soft compound tire designed for confident exploration of the North in winter, even in the most challenging conditions. When winter challenges seem unpredictable, this tire will overcome them safely. The "VikingContact 8" is engineered to handle any challenge safely – wet, icy, slushy, snowy, or a combination of these. This is made possible by our latest evolution in tread design, including 3D sipes, snow edges, and three-layer sipes in the shoulder area. Additionally, the latest Nordic compound technology prepares the tire for any winter temperature. When winter journeys last longer, this tire ensures you reach your destination. The robust and energy-efficient construction of the "VikingContact 8" allows for longer battery life and reduces fuel consumption due to lower rolling resistance. This is further enhanced by our next-generation tread compound, which ensures less tire deformation and significantly reduces energy loss. When winter storms rage outside, this tire will provide you with moments of calm. The "VikingContact 8" offers exceptional driving comfort. Experience reduced noise thanks to an improved tread concept that optimizes the interaction between the tire footprint and lateral grooves. This comfort is particularly characteristic of electric vehicles, as the noise level while driving at any speed is reduced, and tires of all sizes have an A noise rating. We ensure you are ready for electromobility. Our EV compatibility symbol confirms that the tire meets the requirements for electric vehicles as well as vehicles with internal combustion or hybrid engines.
