1. Keeping you on the road longer.
Just as any successful business aims to build long-term relationships, our goal is to stay by your side for as long as possible. That's why we developed the VanContact™ A/S Ultra – an all-season tyre you won't want to get rid of anytime soon. Its thick rubber blocks in brick design and the robust bar running around the entire side of the tyre give it a stable sidewall. These features stand for high durability and reduce the likelihood of curb damage – so you don't have to worry about buying new tyres for a very long time.
2. Tackle the next winter season.
You can only judge how reliable an all-weather tyre is when it snows. That's why we've equipped the VanContact™ A/S Ultra with the right amount of cross grooves as special snow catchers that absorb more snow for extra precise handling while giving you reliable grip, excellent braking performance on snow and overall high stability. You can always rely on your tyre to get you safely through next winter – and the ones that follow.
3. It gets older without you noticing.
No matter how many kilometres you cover, you'll hardly notice on the VanContact™ A/S Ultra. To achieve this performance, we have developed a new and innovative filler system that offers excellent rolling resistance. In addition, our latest compound with functionalised polymers enables higher mileage and offers exceptional wear performance – for an all-round pleasant driving experience that still feels like day one, even after a long time.
Manufacturer information
EU Tyre Label
The Tyre Labelling Regulation determines the information that must be provided with regard to tyres' fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise. Information is also provided on the product's performance in wintery driving conditions.
Regulation EU 1222/2009, which has been in force since 01/11/2012, has been revised and will be replaced from 1 May 2021 by Regulation EU 2020/740, from which point new standards will apply. The assessment categories for fuel efficiency, wet grip and external noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been changed accordingly. The manufacturers' product data sheets, stored in the EU database, can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. It also includes information on snow grip and ice grip for tyres that meet these criteria.
The following tyres are exempt from the regulation:
