Premium softcompound tire to explore the Nordic winter with confidence even in the most challenging conditions.

When winters many faces prove unpredictable, this tyre will tackle them safely.
The VikingContact 8 is engineered to safely perform no matter the challenge it faces – be it wet, ice, slush, snow or a combination. This is possible due to our latest pattern evolution including 3D-sipes, snow edges and three-layer-sipes in the shoulder area. In addition, the latest Nordic compound technology prepares the tyre for any winter temperature.

When the winter journey lasts longer, this tyre ensures that you reach your destination.
The VikingContact 8’s robust and energy efficient construction encourages a greater battery range and less fuel consumption thanks to a reduction in rolling resistance. This is further supported by our next generation tread compound, which ensures less tyre deformation & results in much reduced energy loss.

When winter outside is stormy, this tyre provides you quiet moments.
The VikingContact 8 offers superior driving comfort. Experience less noise achieved by an enhanced pattern concept that optimizes the interaction between the tire footprint and lateral grooves. Especially, this comfort extends to electric vehicles also, with reduced noise levels at all speeds and an “A” noise rating for all tyre sizes.

We make you ready for e-mobility.
Our EV-compatible symbol confirms that the tire meets the requirements of electric vehicles as well as cars with combustion or hybrid engines.

EU Tire Label and Efficiency Classes?

The European Union has introduced the EU Tire Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tires, light commercial vehicle tires and heavy commercial vehicle tires produced after 01.07.2012.

Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tire makes on the road.

The following are not affected by the EU Tire Label: retreaded tires, professional off-road tires, racing tires, tires with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tires, T-type emergency tires, special tires for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tires with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tires for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.

With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.

Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tire Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tire labelling, tires have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.

Tire manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tire labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
