In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Netherlands (Imperial) against a tyre from a manufacturer from Germany (Continental). Generally, Continental winter tyres are slightly better rated (77%) than Imperial (7%). But when it comes to comparing Imperial Snowdragon 2 and Continental WinterContact TS 860, the rating is the same - 0%. The first tyre test of Imperial Snowdragon 2 was done in 2015, compared to 2016 when was the Continental WinterContact TS 860 first tested. Important for this comparison is also the Autobild 2016 205/55 R16 test, where both the Snowdragon 2 and the WinterContact TS 860 were tested.
